powerpc: Remove oprofile RS64 support

2014-07-28T04:10:25+00:00

We no longer support these cpus, so we don't need oprofile support for them either. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

oprofilefs_create_...() do not need superblock argument

same story as with oprofilefs_mkdir() Signed-off-by: Al Viro

oprofilefs_mkdir() doesn't need superblock argument

2013-09-04T02:52:47+00:00

it's always equal to ->d_sb of the second argument (parent dentry), due to either being literally that, or ->d_sb of parent's parent. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

oprofile: don't bother with passing superblock to ->create_files()

powerpc: Remove FW_FEATURE ISERIES from arch code

2012-03-21T00:16:11+00:00

This is no longer selectable, so just remove all the dependent code. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/oprofile: Don't build server oprofile drivers on 64-bit BookE

2010-07-14T04:13:54+00:00

They will fail to build due to the lack of mtmsrd, and wouldn't be useful anyways Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

powerpc/oprofile: IBM CELL: add SPU event profiling support

2009-01-08T14:51:55+00:00

This patch adds the SPU event based profiling funcitonality for the IBM Cell processor. Previously, the CELL OProfile kernel code supported PPU event, PPU cycle profiling and SPU cycle profiling. The addition of SPU event profiling allows the users to identify where in their SPU code various SPU evnets are occuring. This should help users further identify issues with their code. Note, SPU profiling has some limitations due to HW constraints. Only one event at a time can be used for profiling and SPU event profiling must be time sliced across all of the SPUs in a node. The patch adds a new arch specific file to the OProfile file system. The file has bit 0 set to indicate that the kernel supports SPU event profiling. The user tool must check this file/bit to make sure the kernel supports SPU event profiling before trying to do SPU event profiling. The user tool check is part of the user tool patch for SPU event profiling. Signed-off-by: Carl Love Signed-off-by: Robert Richter

on_each_cpu(): kill unused 'retry' parameter

2008-06-26T09:24:38+00:00

It's not even passed on to smp_call_function() anymore, since that was removed. So kill it. Acked-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Reviewed-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[POWERPC] Made FSL Book-E PMC support more generic

2008-02-06T05:34:14+00:00

Some of the more recent e300 cores have the same performance monitor implementation as the e500. e300 isn't book-e, so the name isn't really appropriate. In preparation for e300 support, rename a bunch of fsl_booke things to say fsl_emb (Freescale Embedded Performance Monitors). Signed-off-by: Andy Fleming Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala
