1/*
2 * Debug Store (DS) support
3 *
4 * This provides a low-level interface to the hardware's Debug Store
5 * feature that is used for last branch recording (LBR) and
6 * precise-event based sampling (PEBS).
7 *
8 * Different architectures use a different DS layout/pointer size.
9 * The below functions therefore work on a void*.
10 *
11 *
12 * Since there is no user for PEBS, yet, only LBR (or branch
13 * trace store, BTS) is supported.
