Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/3] perf, powerpc: Allow perf test to handle PowerPC symbol naming
Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2010 15:47:54 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1291956070-sup-549@au1.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1290658375-10342-3-git-send-email-imunsie@au1.ibm.com>

Hi Paul,

Can you take a look at this patch and ACK (or NACK) it and push it to
Ingo?  The two other patches in this series are already in
tip/perf/core, we're just missing this one.

Cheers,
-Ian
