performance counter for linux question.
Hello list, I am interested by monitoring instructions versus cycles with a Nehalem box using 2.6.31 with PCL. Is there a way with perf report to display both counters ? I used perf record -e cycles -e instructions -a for the recording session. perf report -n seems to be doing what I need but for only... 19 Sep 2009 04:59

[PATCH 2/3] usb console,usb-serial: fix regression use of serial->console
During the 2.6.32 development usb serial tty interface was changed. This change caused the usb serial driver to crash when used as a system console. The open and close of the raw hardware has to be protected by the serial->console variable so either the console code does the open and close or the higher level tt... 17 Sep 2009 00:12

[PATCH 1/3] usb console: fix mutex lock regression
During the 2.6.32 development the use of serial->disc_mutex was introduced. In usb_console_setup() the call to usb_serial_get_by_index() will obtain this mutex. The usb_console_setup() must release the mutex before it completes else later calls to the usb serial core will hang. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jaso... 17 Sep 2009 00:12

[PATCH] KEYS: Have the garbage collector set its timer for live expired keys
The key garbage collector sets a timer to start a new collection cycle at the point the earliest key to expire should be considered garbage. However, it currently only does this if the key it is considering hasn't yet expired. If the key being considering has expired, but hasn't yet reached the collection time t... 16 Sep 2009 11:49
