At the end of trace buffer handling, function cs_etm__flush() is invoked to flush any remaining branch stack entries. As a side effect, it also generates branch sample, because the 'etmq->packet' doesn't contains any new coming packet but point to one stale packet after packets swapping, so it wrongly makes synthesize branch samples with stale packet info. We could review below detailed flow which causes issue: Packet1: start_addr=0xffff000008b1fbf0 end_addr=0xffff000008b1fbfc Packet2: start_addr=0xffff000008b1fb5c end_addr=0xffff000008b1fb6c step 1: cs_etm__sample(): sample: ip=(0xffff000008b1fbfc-4) addr=0xffff000008b1fb5c step 2: flush packet in cs_etm__run_decoder(): cs_etm__run_decoder() `-> err = cs_etm__flush(etmq, false); sample: ip=(0xffff000008b1fb6c-4) addr=0xffff000008b1fbf0 Packet1 and packet2 are two continuous packets, when packet2 is the new coming packet, cs_etm__sample() generates branch sample for these two packets and use [packet1::end_addr - 4 => packet2::start_addr] as branch jump flow, thus we can see the first generated branch sample in step 1. At the end of cs_etm__sample() it swaps packets so 'etm->prev_packet'= packet2 and 'etm->packet'=packet1, so far it's okay for branch sample. If packet2 is the last one packet in trace buffer, even there have no any new coming packet, cs_etm__run_decoder() invokes cs_etm__flush() to flush branch stack entries as expected, but it also generates branch samples by taking 'etm->packet' as a new coming packet, thus the branch jump flow is as [packet2::end_addr - 4 => packet1::start_addr]; this is the second sample which is generated in step 2. So actually the second sample is a stale sample and we should not generate it. This patch introduces a new function cs_etm__end_block(), at the end of trace block this function is invoked to only flush branch stack entries and thus can avoid to generate branch sample for stale packet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
