2 * Debug Store (DS) support
4 * This provides a low-level interface to the hardware's Debug Store
5 * feature that is used for branch trace store (BTS) and
6 * precise-event based sampling (PEBS).
9 * - DS and BTS hardware configuration
10 * - buffer overflow handling (to be done)
14 * - security checking (is the caller allowed to trace the task)
15 * - buffer allocation (memory accounting)

83 * The interrupt threshold is independent from the overflow callback
84 * to allow users to use their own overflow interrupt handling mechanism.

93 * NULL if cyclic buffer requested
94 * th: the interrupt threshold in records from the end of the buffer;
95 * -1 if no interrupt threshold is requested.
