Measuring Intel BTS overhead
Submitted by Anonymous on Wed, 09/18/2013 - 10:58
Currently trying to measure the overhead of activating Intel BTS, which enables collection of execution trace. Every jump or change in the program counter is saved in a buffer in RAM.
The current way to handle BTS in Linux is sub-obtimal since it does 2 copies, we are trying to find a more efficient way to handle this.
