From cedd3614e5d9c80908099c19f8716714ce0610b1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anshuman Khandual Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2022 11:06:54 +0530 Subject: perf: Add irq and exception return branch types This expands generic branch type classification by adding two more entries there in i.e irq and exception return. Also updates the x86 implementation to process X86_BR_IRET and X86_BR_IRQ records as appropriate. This changes branch types reported to user space on x86 platform but it should not be a problem. The possible scenarios and impacts are enumerated here.
