The x86_perf_regs->xmm_regs saves the pointer to PEBS record.
We don't allocate space for it.
The related code can be found at 04/23 "perf/x86/intel: Support adaptive
PEBSv4"

+ if (format_size & PEBS_DATACFG_XMMS) {
+ struct pebs_xmm *xmm = next_record;
+
+ next_record = xmm + 1;
+ perf_regs->xmm_regs = xmm->xmm;
+ }

This patch only include the generic support for x86_perf_regs.

I will add is_sampling_event() check as below.

if (is_sampling_event(event) &&
(event->attr.sample_regs_user & ~PEBS_REGS))
return -EINVAL;
if (is_sampling_event(event) &&
(event->attr.sample_regs_intr & ~PEBS_REGS) &&
(!x86_pmu.has_xmm_regs || !event->attr.precise_ip))
return -EINVAL;

I'm not familiar with AMD. I just google it. It looks like AMD also has
XMM registers.

It means that XMM registers can be collected in PEBS record.
How about the name "pebs_has_xmm_regs"?


Thanks,
