From: Adrian Hunter Date: Fri, 10 May 2019 12:41:41 +0000 (+0300) Subject: perf intel-pt: Fix instructions sampling rate X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7ba8fa20e26eb3c0c04d747f7fd2223694eac4d5;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git perf intel-pt: Fix instructions sampling rate The timestamp used to determine if an instruction sample is made, is an estimate based on the number of instructions since the last known timestamp. A consequence is that it might go backwards, which results in extra samples. Change it so that a sample is only made when the timestamp goes forwards. Note this does not affect a sampling period of 0 or sampling periods specified as a count of instructions.
