[ Upstream commit d137845c973147a22622cc76c7b0bc16f6206323 ] While sampling for marked events, currently we record the sample only if the SIAR valid bit of Sampled Instruction Event Register (SIER) is set. SIAR_VALID bit is used for fetching the instruction address from Sampled Instruction Address Register(SIAR). But there are some usecases, where the user is interested only in the PMU stats at each counter overflow and the exact IP of the overflow event is not required. Dropping SIAR invalid samples will fail to record some of the counter overflows in such cases. Example of such usecase is dumping the PMU stats (event counts) after some regular amount of instructions/events from the userspace (ex: via ptrace). Here counter overflow is indicated to userspace via signal handler, and captured by monitoring and enabling I/O signaling on the event file descriptor. In these cases, we expect to get sample/overflow indication after each specified sample_period. Perf event attribute will not have PERF_SAMPLE_IP set in the sample_type if exact IP of the overflow event is not requested. So while profiling if SAMPLE_IP is not set, just record the counter overflow irrespective of SIAR_VALID check.

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.
