From 50f736372d5ea0ce97ede698f957c9b141aa569e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Hunter Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2016 16:40:57 +0300 Subject: perf auxtrace: Add option to feed branches to the thread stack In preparation for using the thread stack to print an indent representing the stack depth in perf script, add an option to tell decoders to feed branches to the thread stack. Add support for that option to Intel PT and Intel BTS. The advantage of using the decoder to feed the thread stack is that it happens before branch filtering and so can be used with different itrace options (e.g. it still works when only showing calls, even though the thread stack needs to see calls and returns). Also it does not conflict with using the thread stack to get callchains.
