From: Paul Mackerras Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2009 04:54:01 +0000 (+1000) Subject: perf_counters: powerpc: Add support for POWER7 processors X-Git-Tag: v2.6.31-rc1~383^2~11 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4da52960fd1ae3ddd14901bc88b608cbeaa4b9a6;p=pandora-kernel.git perf_counters: powerpc: Add support for POWER7 processors This adds the back-end for the PMU on POWER7 processors. POWER7 has 4 fully-programmable counters and two fixed-function counters (which do respect the freeze conditions, can generate interrupts, and are writable, unlike PMC5/6 on POWER5+/6).
