Paul, I just noticed that right now if perf counter is enabled, the oprofile module load will always fail because the powerpc perf counter support unconditionally grabs the PMC hardware using reserve_pmc_hardware() in an arch_initcall()
There really needs to be a way to segregate these multiple users of the PMC device. For example, if I'm not using the perf counter APIs at all I should be able to use oprofile if I want to. Anyways, just FYI... _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
