[PATCH V4 11/16] perf, core: Pass perf_sample_data to perf_callchain()

From: Yan, Zheng
Date: Mon Jun 30 2014 - 04:53:00 EST


Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing Last Branch Record
facility to record call chains. When the feature is enabled, function
call will be collected as normal, but as return instructions are executed
the last captured branch record is popped from the on-chip LBR registers.
The LBR call stack facility can help perf to get call chains of progam
without frame pointer.

This patch modifies various architectures' perf_callchain() to accept
perf sample data. Later patch will add code that use the sample data to
get call chains.
