x86, bts: base in-kernel ds interface on handles

[deliverable/linux.git] / arch / x86 / include / asm / ds.h

/*
 * Debug Store (DS) support
 *
 * This provides a low-level interface to the hardware's Debug Store
 * feature that is used for branch trace store (BTS) and
 * precise-event based sampling (PEBS).
 *
 * It manages:
 * - per-thread and per-cpu allocation of BTS and PEBS
 * - buffer memory allocation (optional)
 * - buffer overflow handling
 * - buffer access
 *
 * It assumes:
 * - get_task_struct on all parameter tasks
 * - current is allowed to trace parameter tasks
 *
