Hi, Peter and Ingo


For MIPS, recording user stack backtrace in the kernel is not quite as easy
as on other platforms. Because In the kernel, we don't have frame unwinder
to work on the user stack. Given the different possible compiler flags,
getting the backtrace for the user stack is especially challenging.

So, is it still useful to implement the Perf-events callchain support on
MIPS with only kernel addresses recorded for now? What impact do you see to
do so? Only that the user can not see user-level performance bottleneck?


Thanks!

Deng-Cheng
