The time order is incorrect when the TSC in a PEBS record is used.
$perf record -e cycles:upp dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null
count=10000
$ perf script --show-task-events
perf-exec 0 0.000000: PERF_RECORD_COMM: perf-exec:915/915
dd 915 106.479872: PERF_RECORD_COMM exec: dd:915/915
dd 915 106.483270: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(915:915):(914:914)
dd 915 106.512429: 1 cycles:upp:
ffffffff96c011b7 [unknown] ([unknown])
... ...
The perf time is from sched_clock_cpu(). The current PEBS code
unconditionally convert the TSC to native_sched_clock(). There is a
shift between the two clocks. If the TSC is stable, the shift is
consistent, __sched_clock_offset. If the TSC is unstable, the shift has
to be calculated at runtime.
This patch doesn't support the conversion when the TSC is unstable. The
TSC unstable case is a corner case and very unlikely to happen. If it
happens, the TSC in a PEBS record will be dropped and fall back to
perf_event_clock().
