Hi all, ( referring to kernel source as of 2.6.11 )
Among other things, Cort Dougan has provided support for usage of the performance counters in 604 type cores via: /proc/ppc_htab. This is great, but the required cpu feature: CPU_FTR_604_PERF_MON is not in the list for the 7447 ppc family. I guess there are differences related to the performance counter registers and the monitor control registers between the the 604 core types and 7447, but I haven't had time to research it. I was wondering if anyone has upgraded: cputable.c and ppc_htab.c for use with ppc types, other than 604, that have performance monitor registers and if such code is publically available? regards, Ron
