Icelake and later platforms support collecting XMM registers with PEBS
event.
Add support for 'perf script' to dump them, and support for the register
parser in 'perf record -I=' ... to configure them.
For now they are just printed in hex, we could potentially later add
other formats too.
Committer testing:
Before:
# perf record -IXMM0
Warning:
unknown register XMM0, check man page or run 'perf record -I?'
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
#
# perf record -I?
available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
#
After:
# perf record -IXMM0
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
#
# perf record -I?
available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15 XMM0 XMM1 XMM2 XMM3 XMM4 XMM5 XMM6 XMM7 XMM8 XMM9 XMM10 XMM11 XMM12 XMM13 XMM14 XMM15
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-I, --intr-regs[=<any register>]
sample selected machine registers on interrupt, use -I ? to list register names
#
More work is needed to, when faced with such error, warn the user that
that register is not available on the running platform.
