That would be very useful indeed.. I think we talked about this before. Also wasn't there some vendor support for this idea as well? I think we want a format that is relatively simple to parse and human readable (which excludes XML on both counts ;-). The main objection of using libpfm4 has always been that its primarily something else. It also does the event listing thing, but that's only a small part of it. But if we can split out that part and use it in both projects that would be best I think. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
