Hi Stephane,
In a separate email (this time) I will be posting up a new version of
the patch which corrects the errors you found.
As a result of thinking things through a little more, I decided to
backtrack on a decision I had made to separate out the PowerPC from the
PPC64 implementation. This is at least partially because some of the
include code gets confusing as it's based upon a define of __powerpc__
which is defined for both 32-bit and 64-bit POWER and PowerPC processors.
So I've unified the implementation into a single pfmlib_gen_powerpc.c
file. If someone decides to do the engineering required for the 32-bit
processors at some point, perhaps they will be able to make use of what
I've done so far, or maybe they will need to break away from that. But
in the meantime, I've made the guess that the code will be able to be
reused and that the processor-specific differences can be resolved at
runtime.
This patch also contains a new file in the docs/man3 directory -
libpfm_powerpc.3, containing some info on this implementation.
One other thing: this implementation obsoletes the file
lib/pfmlib_powerpc.c as it really needed to be renamed to
pfmlib_gen_powerpc.c, so that removal is in the patch file as well.
- Corey
