Subject: [PATCH] x86-64 add Intel PEBS and BTS cpufeature bits and detection
Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2006 13:34:38 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061115213438.GD17238@frankl.hpl.hp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20061115213241.GC17238@frankl.hpl.hp.com>
Hello,
Here is a small patch that adds two cpufeature bits to represent
Intel's Precise-Event-Based Sampling (PEBS) and Branch Trace Store
(BTS) features. Those features can be found on Intel P4 and Core 2
processors among others and can be used by perfmon. This patch is
for x86-64.
changelog:
- add CPU_FEATURE_PEBS and CPU_FEATURE_BTS
- add feature detection code
