From c229bf9dc179d2023e185c0f705bdf68484c1e73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephane Eranian Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2015 09:09:08 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Add PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL Add a new branch sample type to cover only call branches (function calls). The current ANY_CALL included direct, indirect calls and far jumps. We want to be able to differentiate indirect from direct calls. Therefore we introduce PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL. The implementation is up to each architecture.
