From 642bd4e2f0eb6e3c342f937c8ac4b2e7e534e975 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jed Davis Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2013 00:21:11 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf: ARM: Record the user-mode PC in the call chain. With this change, we no longer lose the innermost entry in the user-mode part of the call chain. See also the x86 port, which includes the ip. It's possible to partially work around this problem by post-processing the data to use the PERF_SAMPLE_IP value, but this works only if the CPU wasn't in the kernel when the sample was taken.
