From: Anton Blanchard Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2009 01:09:29 +0000 (+0000) Subject: perf_event: Add alignment-faults and emulation-faults software events X-Git-Tag: upstream/snapshot3+hdmi~16109^2~288^2~17^2~11 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7d7986060b2890fc26db6ab5203efbd33aa2497;p=platform%2Fadaptation%2Frenesas_rcar%2Frenesas_kernel.git perf_event: Add alignment-faults and emulation-faults software events Add two more software events that are common to many cpus. Alignment faults: When a load or store is not aligned properly. Emulation faults: When an instruction is emulated in software. Both cause a very significant slowdown (100x or worse), so identifying and fixing them is very important.
