The CPU Measurement Sampling Facility (CPUM_SF) installs large buffers to save samples collected by hardware. These buffers are organized as Sample Data Buffer Tables (SDBT) and Sample Data Buffers (SDB). SDBs contain the samples which are extracted and saved in the perf ring buffer. The SDBTs are chained using real addresses and refer to SDBs using real addresses. The diagnostic sampling setup uses buffers provided by the process which invokes perf_event_open system call. The buffers are memory mapped. The buffers have been allocated by the kernel event subsystem. Add proper virtual to phyiscal address translation to the buffer chaining. The current constraint which requires virtual equals real address layout is removed.
