Thanks.

Ingo,

can you try to send that one patch in urgent upstream for .34? It is
already in the queue for 1 week.

Could you also pull the oprofile core tree with the reservation code
to tip/oprofile? I also want to merge this to perf/core after pending
perf patches esp. pebs are applied to tip. When do you think perf/core
can be updated?

Thanks,

-Robert

[GIT PULL] oprofile: updates for v2.6.34

[Robert Richter]

Ingo,

please pull oprofile updates for v2.6.36:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rric/oprofile.git core

It's just a small number of patches, see the log below. The branch is
already in linux-next for a long time.

Thanks,

    oprofile: make event buffer nonseekable
    
    The event buffer cannot deal with seeks, so
    we should forbid that outright.

    Oprofile: Change CPUIDS from decimal to hex, and add some comments
    
    Back when the patch was submitted for "Add Xeon 7500 series support to
    oprofile", Robert Richter had asked for a followon patch that
    converted all the CPU ID values to hex.
    
    I have done that here for the "i386/core_i7" and "i386/atom" class
    processors in the ppro_init() function and also added some comments on
    where to find documentation on the Intel processors.
