From 335358cc3090d85793c663a625fa1c9195b8670e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Hunter Date: Fri, 30 Apr 2021 10:03:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf intel-pt: Let overlap detection handle VM timestamps Intel PT timestamps are affected by virtualization. While TSC packets can still be considered to be unique, the TSC values need not be in order any more. Adjust the algorithm accordingly.
