    perf intel-pt: Support itrace option flag d+e to log on error · 65aee81a
    Adrian Hunter authored
    Pass d+e option and log size via intel_pt_log_enable(). Allocate a buffer
    for log messages and provide intel_pt_log_dump_buf() to dump and reset the
    buffer upon decoder errors.
    
    Example:
    
     $ sudo perf record -e intel_pt// sleep 1
     [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
     [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.094 MB perf.data ]
     $ sudo perf config itrace.debug-log-buffer-size=300
     $ sudo perf script --itrace=ed+e+o | head -20
     Dumping debug log buffer (first line may be sliced)
