x86, ptrace: support for branch trace store(BTS)
Resend using different mail client Changes to the last version: - split implementation into two layers: ds/bts and ptrace - renamed TIF's - save/restore ds save area msr in __switch_to_xtra() - make block-stepping only look at BTF bit Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
