From 65661f96d3b32f4b28fef26d21be81d7e173b965 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephane Eranian Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2013 17:58:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86: Add RAPL hrtimer support The RAPL PMU counters do not interrupt on overflow. Therefore, the kernel needs to poll the counters to avoid missing an overflow. This patch adds the hrtimer code to do this. The timer interval is calculated at boot time based on the power unit used by the HW. There is one hrtimer per-cpu to handle the case of multiple simultaneous use across cores on the same package + hotplug CPU. Thanks to Maria Dimakopoulou for her contributions to this patch especially on the math aspects.
