From f29ac756a40d0f1bb07d682ea521e7b666ff06d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2009 18:27:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf_counter: Optimize perf_swcounter_event() Similar to tracepoints, use an enable variable to reduce overhead when unused. Only look for a counter of a particular event type when we know there is at least one in the system.
