My concern is seeing a generically named "kvm_perf.h" include a file called "trace_book3s.h" which defines "kvm_trace_symbol_hcall" with presumably book3s-specific content, as well as wondering how much of the rest of the file would be applicable if booke PPC were to implement perf kvm. I don't know enough about perf kvm to answer that question, but I've seen enough cases of book3s or pseries specific code that was apparently written with the belief that no other ppc64 implementations exist, or that no other ppc implementations would want to implement a certain feature, to be suspicous. Usually such cases can be dealt with after the fact (albeit not as easily as if things were organized/namespaced properly from the beginning), but this is uapi... -Scott -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm-ppc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
