This patch set consists of two kernel patches and one user level patch to add SPU event based profiling support to OProfile for the IBM Cell processor. The first patch in the series is the user level patch that adds the needed events and event checking to the user tool. The second patch is the first of two kernel patches. It makes some structural changes to the kernel code to make it easier to add the specific functions for doing SPU event profiling. The first kernel patch does not make any functional changes. The third patch in the series is the second kernel patch where the actual SPU event profiling code support is added to the kernel.
