Is there an xctrace instrument capable of capturing the complete control flow of a process? So far the best I can find is high-frequency sampling, but what I need is a trace of all machine instructions executed. This is easily done on Linux/Intel using the perf tool, which provides access to Intel's hardware-assisted tracing module (ptrace). According to the arm specification, my mac mini M1 (armv8.4-a) and M4 (armv9.2-a) both have hardware support in the CoreSight ETM (embedded trace macrocell) for full instruction tracing (i.e., no sampling, no gaps, no statistics--capturing the complete execution path). But it's not clear how I can access these features, if they are supported by the macos XNU kernel at all. After hours of searching online, it's nothing but dead ends. Any suggestions for documentation or Xcode tools or open-source tools or built-in macos tools would be much appreciated!
