perf cs-etm: Properly set the value of 'old' and 'head' in snapshot mode
This patch adds the necessary intelligence to properly compute the value of 'old' and 'head' when operating in snapshot mode. That way we can get the latest information in the AUX buffer and be compatible with the generic AUX ring buffer mechanic. Tester notes: > Leo, have you had the chance to test/review this one? Suzuki? Sure. I applied this patch on the perf/core branch (with latest commit 3e4fbf36c1e3 'perf augmented_raw_syscalls: Move reading filename to the loop') and passed testing with below steps: # perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/ -S -m,64 --per-thread ./sort & [1] 19097 Bubble sorting array of 30000 elements # kill -USR2 19097 # kill -USR2 19097 # kill -USR2 19097 [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.753 MB perf.data ] Signed-off-by: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@linaro.org> Tested-by: Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Suzuki Poulouse <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190605161633.12245-1-mathieu.poirier@linaro.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
