2010-10-11	oprofile: Abstract the perf-events backend	Matt Fleming	1	-0/+4
	Move the perf-events backend from arch/arm/oprofile into drivers/oprofile so that the code can be shared between architectures. This allows each architecture to maintain only a single copy of the PMU accessor functions instead of one for both perf and OProfile. It also becomes possible for other architectures to delete much of their OProfile code in favour of the common code now available in drivers/oprofile/oprofile_perf.c.

2010-05-17	ARM: 6073/1: oprofile: remove old files and update KConfig	Will Deacon	1	-6/+1
	Enable hardware perf-events if CPU_HAS_PMU and select HAVE_OPROFILE if HAVE_PERF_EVENTS. If no hardware support is present, OProfile will fall back to timer mode. This patch also removes the old OProfile drivers in favour of the code implemented by perf. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-01	[ARM] 5195/1: ARMv7 Oprofile support	Jean PIHET	1	-0/+1
	Add Oprofile kernel support for ARMv7. Tested on OMAP3430 and OMAP3530 chipsets (Cortex-A8). Signed-off-by: Jean Pihet <jpihet@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-02-06	[ARM] oprofile: add ARM11 SMP support	Russell King	1	-0/+1
	Add the glue for ARM11 SMP oprofile support, which also supports the performance monitor in the coherency unit. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-02-06	[ARM] oprofile: add ARM11 UP support	Russell King	1	-0/+1
	Add oprofile glue for ARM11 (ARMv6) oprofile support. This connects the ARM11 core profiling support to the oprofile code for uniprocessor configurations. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-02-06	[ARM] oprofile: add ARM11 core support	Russell King	1	-1/+1
	Add basic support for the ARM11 profiling hardware. This is shared between the ARM11 UP and ARM11 SMP oprofile support code. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-10-28	[ARM] 4/4 Combine oprofile common and init code	Russell King	1	-2/+2
	There is nothing special about having the init code separate from the common code, so combine the two. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-06-28	[PATCH] ARM: 2761/1: OProfile: Add call graphing support for arm	Richard Purdie	1	-1/+1
	Patch from Richard Purdie Add functions to generate backtraces of both kernel and user processes which allows oprofile's call graphing functionality to be used on arm. This requires unstripped binaries/libs which use a frame pointer.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+11
	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
