alpha: implement HW performance events on the EV67 and later CPUs 2010-08-10T03:45:04+00:00 Michael Cree mcree@orcon.net.nz 2010-08-10T00:20:08+00:00 979f867191f80e74713394cf8c0a3c1b3662b648 This implements hardware performance events for the EV67 and later CPUs within the Linux performance events subsystem. Only using the performance monitoring unit in HP/Compaq's so called "Aggregrate mode" is supported. The code has been implemented in a manner that makes extension to other older Alpha CPUs relatively straightforward should some mug wish to indulge themselves.
