Subject: new 2.6.15-rc6 perfmon2 patch
Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2005 14:09:13 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051221220913.GC8275@frankl.hpl.hp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20051220180744.GC5516@frankl.hpl.hp.com>
Hi,
I have released YET another version of the perfmon2 new code base.
This one is STILL relative to 2.6.15-rc6 and is called 2.6.15-rc6-v2.
This one DOES fix the panic on pfm_fmt_put()!
This patch includes compared to initial 2.6.15-rc6:
- quick overview of perfmon2 README
- fix the kernel panic on pfm_fmt_put()
- save/restore of PMU state when NMI watchdog is
enabled.
- reinforced checks in register_smpl_fmt()
- revised checks to detect if a format/PMU description is
builtin or module
- sampling formats can now export the notification
message queue depth they require.
- MIPS patch updated to latest fixes.
You MUST use libpfm-3.2-051215 with this kernel due to
interface change for pfm_create_context().
As usual, you can download the latest packages from the
SourceForge website at:
http://www.sf.net/projects/perfmon2
This will hopefully be the last release for this year.
Happy Holidays.
