From 246eba8e9041c4774738645c72b6efac7601db22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Hunter Date: Tue, 12 May 2020 15:19:18 +0300 Subject: perf tools: Add support for PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE Add processing for PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE events. When a text poke event is processed, then the kernel dso data cache is updated with the poked bytes. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: H.
