Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 07/18] perf: add generic memory sampling interface
Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2013 22:43:54 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130106064354.GK29714@tassilo.jf.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130105190552.GC995@krava.brq.redhat.com>

> Why dont use enums for this?

enums can have unpredictable signed/unsignedness issues. #defines for
hardware constants is usually far safer.
