From 1cfcea1b2d67987ddb84dc75f454321bcf536555 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2006 17:06:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] x86_64: Allow oprofile for model P4 models Add it for P4 model 6 - reported to work and have a similar PMU to earlier P4s. Add an p4force=1 module override parameter for future use. We had a discussion about that earlier - it's a trade off between the PMU staying compatible or not. I think the force parameter is a reasonable compromise.
