Hello, I have released another version of the perfmon new code base package. This release is relative to 2.6.17-rc1 There were, once again, new system calls added. As such a new libpfm is necessary. This new kernel patch includes several changes: - Merged i386 and x86_64 perfmon.c architecture specific codes - Merged PMU description modules for em64t and p4. - support for automatic loading of PMU description modules if CONFIG_KMOD=y. Make sure you run make modules_install - MIPS patches are back and are applied onto the mainline kernel This release uses the new/mod patch breakdown for all architectures. To apply, you can simply do: cat ../perfmon-new-base-060405/*.diff | patch -p1 The new version of the library, libpfm, includes the following changes: - updated to match 2.6.17-rc1 new system call numbers - modified pfmlib.h to use 64-bit integer for generic PMC register (submitted by Kevin Corry from IBM) I have finally created a minimal home page for the project. So now you can access the latest news and files from: http://perfmon2.sf.net I received notification from SF.net, that the libpfm package has been installed into our CVS repository. It should become visible fairly quickly now. Once this happens, I will update the tree to include this new version of the library.
