[ Upstream commit 9e1a8d9f683260d50e0a14176d3f7c46a93b2700 ]
'perf inject' is currently not working for Arm SPE. When you try to run 'perf inject' and 'perf report' with a perf.data file that contains SPE traces, the tool reports a "Bad address" error:
# ./perf record -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1,store_filter=1,branch_filter=1,load_filter=1/ -a -- sleep 1 # ./perf inject -i perf.data -o perf.inject.data --itrace # ./perf report -i perf.inject.data --stdio
0x42c00 [0x8]: failed to process type: 9 [Bad address] Error: failed to process sample
As far as I know, the issue was first spotted in [1], but 'perf inject' was not yet injecting the samples. This patch does something similar to what cs_etm does for injecting the samples [2], but for SPE.
