perf and Intel PT, with the disassembler patches added and udis86
installed:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc.git/log/?h=perf/disassembler-2
http://udis86.sourceforge.net/

You need a CPU that supports PT, like Broadwell, Skylake, Goldmont.

# enable trace point
perf record -e intel_pt// -a sleep X
perf script --itrace=i0ns --ns -F cpu,ip,time,asm,sym

On Skylake can also get more accurate timing by enabling cycle timing
(at the cost of some overhead)

perf record -e intel_pt/cyc=1,cyc_thresh=1/ -a ...

The earlier trace didn't have that enabled.
