This happens on a MIPS64 system, running UP.

I have numbered my PMD's from 1...so I have all the hardware.

Doesn't the numbering start from 0? That is the case with what is reported by whichpmu. How many registers are there? What information is reported by showreginfo? On the AMD machine I am using pmd0 is used by the watchdog timer and showreginfo isn't reporting pmd0 as available.

Hi Stefane,

Well, I never ran these test cases before now....

It looks like when I run either rtop or syst, I'm seeing an error
because Perfmon2 seems to think that there's other contexts running when
in fact there isn't. Something isn't getting cleaned up, because I can
increase the number of 'conflicting sessions' simply by running 'self' a
number of times. It seems every run increases this value.

I didn't see this problem on the AMD64 machine I am running things on. I am noticing that PMD1 and PMD2 are being used on the AMD machine Which architecture is this on? Is this on an architecture with only 2 counters? The new kernel could be reserving PMD0.
