Subject: Bug fixes for OProfile for Cell
From: Maynard Johnson <[email protected]>
This patch contains three crucial fixes:
- op_model_cell.c:cell_virtual_cntr: correctly access the per-cpu
pmc_values arrays
- op_model_cell.c:cell_reg_setup: initialize _all_ 4 elements of
pmc_values with reset_value
- include/asm-powerpc/cell-pmu.h: fix broken macro, PM07_CTR_INPUT_MUX

- * Oprofile setup functions
+ * Oprofile is expected to collect data on all CPUs simultaneously.
+ * However, there is one set of performance counters per node. There are
+ * two hardware threads or virtual CPUs on each node. Hence, OProfile must
+ * multiplex in time the performance counter collection on the two virtual
+ * CPUs. The multiplexing of the performance counters is done by this
+ * virtual counter routine.
+ *
+ * The pmc_values used below is defined as 'per-cpu' but its use is
+ * more akin to 'per-node'. We need to store two sets of counter
+ * values per node -- one for the previous run and one for the next.
+ * The per-cpu[NR_PHYS_CTRS] gives us the storage we need. Each odd/even
+ * pair of per-cpu arrays is used for storing the previous and next
+ * pmc values for a given node.
+ * NOTE: We use the per-cpu variable to improve cache performance.
