To: perfctr-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: perfctr-2.5.2 released Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Version 2.5.2 of perfctr, the Linux/x86 performance monitoring counters driver, is now available at the usual place: http://www.csd.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/perfctr/ Version 2.5.2, 2003-04-13 - Updated power management code for the local APIC and NMI watchdog driver model changes in kernel 2.5.67. - Timer-based sampling of per-process performance counters is now always enabled: previously it was only done on SMP. Needed to avoid counter inaccuracies on high core-clock CPUs. - Fixes to user-space library implementation of remote-control virtual performance counters: open() failed due to a missing return; avoid potential buffer overflow error; fix the "read counters" procedure for the case where the remote process is sampling the time-stamp counter but no performance counters. - Added support for RedHat 9's 2.4.20-8 and 2.4.20-9 kernels. / Mikael Pettersson
