The lpp instruction is used to place the PID of the current task in the program-parameter (PP) register. The register contents is then included in the sampling data entries. The lpp instruction loads the PP register only when at least one sampling function is enabled. Otherwise it is executed as a no-op. Linux calls lpp at context switch. If the context switch happens before the sampler is enabled, the PP register is empty. That means, the PID of the task that is sampled is not stored in sampling data until the next context switch. Hence, always call lpp when enabling the sampler. Signed-off-by: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> |
