CPU Measurement sampling facility on s390 does not support perf tool collection of callchain data using --call-graph option. The sampling facility collects samples in a ring buffer which includes only the instruction address the samples were taken. When the ring buffer hits a watermark, a measurement alert interrupt is triggered and handled by the performance measurement unit (PMU) device driver. It collects the samples and feeds each sample to the perf ring buffer in the common code via functions perf_prepare_sample()/perf_output_sample(). When function perf_prepare_sample() is called to collect sample data's callchain, user register values or stack area, invalid data is picked, because the context of the collected information does not match the context when the sample was taken. There is currently no way to provide the callchain and other information, because the hardware sampler does not collect this information. Therefore prohibit sampling when the user requests a callchain graph from the hardware sampler. Return -EOPNOTSUPP to the user in this case. If call chains are really wanted, users need to specify software event cpu-clock to get the callchain information from a software event.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
