Provide TSC for PERF_SAMPLE_CLOCK_PT. This is needed
to match perf events against hardware traces like

Hi
TSC is needed to synchronize Intel Processor Trace (Intel PT)
with perf event samples. Refer to patch 1 for more details.
There is a description of Intel PT in the Intel Architecture
manuals:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/architectures-software-developer-manuals.html
This is needed to allow perf event samples to be
synchronized with data from other sources, and
in particular, sources like Intel Processor Trace
(Intel PT) where the hardware produces a trace
with hardware defined timestamps (i.e. TSC).
For example, to decode an Intel PT trace, the decoder

Stefan, Andrew,
I ended up cherry-picking and older patch here by mistake. Joonsoo pointed
it out but I didn't have time to address it yet since I'm travelling and
they got pulled in to mmotm in the meanwhile.
I'll send out patches to add documentation and fix the issues raised here
early next

May be depends REGMAP would be good.
You are right, just realized that
it should be "select REGMAP"
and for QFPROM it should be "select REGMAP_MMIO"

Hello,
with logger from util-linux 2.25.x it's possible to combine the option
-i with other options like:
logger -is
with 2.26 I get the following error message:
$:~> logger -is
logger: failed to parse id: 's'
The changed behaviour breaks existing scripts like dhcpcd-run-hooks [1]

can_probe() checks if the given address points to the beginning of
an instruction. It analyzes all the instructions from the beginning
of the function until the given address. The code might be modified
by another Kprobe. In this case, the current code is read into a buffer,

__recover_probed_insn() should always be called from an address where
an instructions starts. The check for ftrace_location() might help to
discover a potential inconsistency. Something goes terribly wrong when
an address inside the ftrace location is checked. Let's BUG() in this case.

Michael,
The vhost_is_little_endian() helper adds unconditionnal overhead to fixed
endian architectures: that is all architectures except arm and ppc64. This

The VHOST_VRING_F_LEGACY_BIG_ENDIAN flag informs the kernel that the
associated device is big endian. Of course, this only makes sense for
legacy virtio devices since modern virtio devices are always little
endian.
It will be used by the vhost memory accessors to byteswap vring data when
we have
Hi,
This patchset allows vhost_net to be used with legacy virtio
when guest and host have a different endianness. It is based
on previous work by Cédric Le Goater:

As suggested by MST:
- the API now asks for a specific format
