[PATCH 22/36] perf/x86: Add support for PEBS Precise Store

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Thu Mar 28 2013 - 13:09:20 EST


From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds support for PEBS Precise Store
which is available on Intel Sandy Bridge and
Ivy Bridge processors.

To use Precise store, the proper PEBS event
must be used: mem_trans_retired:precise_stores.
For the perf tool, the generic mem-stores event
exported via sysfs can be used directly.
