powerpc/perf: Add basic assembly code to read BHRB entries on POWER8 2013-04-26T06:11:11+00:00 Anshuman Khandual khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com 2013-04-22T19:42:41+00:00 73760931dcbcbe29eab72e06577a77c64f16fd02 This patch adds the basic assembly code to read BHRB buffer. BHRB entries are valid only after a PMU interrupt has happened (when MMCR0[PMAO]=1) and BHRB has been freezed. BHRB read should not be attempted when it is still enabled (MMCR0[PMAE]=1) and getting updated, as this can produce non-deterministic results.
