Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] perf arm-spe: Track pid/tid for Arm SPE samples
Date:   Tue,  9 Nov 2021 11:50:16 +0000

The following patchset is an iteration on RFC [1] where pid/tid info is
assigned to the Arm SPE synthesized samples. Two methods of tracking
pids are considered: hardware-based (using Arm SPE CONTEXT packets), and
context-switch events (from perf) as fallback.

  - Patch #1 enables pid tracking using RECORD_SWITCH* events from perf.
  - Patch #2 updates perf-record documentation and arm-spe recording so
    that they are consistent.
  - Patch #3 saves the value of SPE CONTEXT packet to the arm_spe_record
    struct.
  - Patch #4 enables hardware-based pid tracking using SPE CONTEXT
    packets.

Changes since v1:

  - [PATCH 1/4] Fix authorship of commit.
  - [PATCH 2/4] (New patch) Updated perf-record docs to reflect the
    behavior of Arm SPE introduced by the previous patch.
  - [PATCH 3/4] update initialization of context_id field to (u64)-1.
  - [PATCH 4/4] Update handling of pid/tid tracking fallback following
    Leo Yan's suggestion. Don't consider per-thread mode on this patch.
