2010-08-08sparc64: Fix perf_arch_get_caller_regs().David S. Miller
After b0f82b81fe6bbcf78d478071f33e44554726bc81 ("perf: Drop the skip argument from perf_arch_fetch_regs_caller") the build broke on sparc64 due to the lack of a module symbol export of __perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs. But that assembler helper can actually be complete eliminated now that the semantics of this interface have been greatly simplified. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-06-08perf: Drop the skip argument from perf_arch_fetch_regs_callerFrederic Weisbecker
Drop this argument now that we always want to rewind only to the state of the first caller. It means frame pointers are not necessary anymore to reliably get the source of an event. But this also means we need this helper to be a macro now, as an inline function is not an option since we need to know when to provide a default implentation.

2010-04-03sparc64: Implement perf_arch_fetch_caller_regsDavid S. Miller
We provide regs->tstate, regs->tpc, regs->tnpc and regs->u_regs[UREG_FP]. regs->tstate is necessary for: user_mode() (via perf_exclude_event()) perf_misc_flags() (via perf_prepare_sample()) regs->tpc is necessary for: perf_instruction_pointer() (via perf_prepare_sample()) and regs->u_regs[UREG_FP] is necessary for: perf_callchain() (via perf_prepare_sample()) The regs->tnpc value is provided just to be tidy.

2008-12-04sparc,sparc64: unify kernel/Sam Ravnborg
o Move all files from sparc64/kernel/ to sparc/kernel - rename as appropriate o Update sparc/Makefile to the changes o Update sparc/kernel/Makefile to include the sparc64 files NOTE: This commit changes link order on sparc64! Link order had to change for either of sparc32 and sparc64. And assuming sparc64 see more testing than sparc32 change link order on sparc64 where issues will be caught faster.
