[PATCH 5/6] perf/core: Use ioctl to communicate driver configuration to kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch follows what has been done for filters by adding an ioctl()
option to communicate to the kernel arbitrary PMU specific configuration
that don't fit in the conventional struct perf_event_attr to the kernel.
