Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Vincent Danjean <vdanj...@debian.org>
* Package name : libpfm4 Version : 4.3.0 Upstream Author : Stephane Eranian <eran...@gmail.com> * URL : http://perfmon2.sourceforge.net/ * License : BSD-like (see below) Programming Lang: C + python bindings Description : Library to program the performance monitoring events Libpfm4 helps convert from an event name, expressed as a string, to the event encoding. The encoding can then be used with specific OS interfaces. Libpfm4 also provides OS-specific interfaces to directly setup OS-specific data structures to be passed to the kernel. The current libpfm4, for instance, provides support for the perf_events interface which was introduced in Linux v2.6.31. Note: this package is a dependency of PAPI (see next ITP) Note2: libpfm3 was in Debian but it is abandonned upstream (and removed in wheezy). libpfm4 is a full rewrite (both projects coexisted during a time) License: Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: .
