- Cleanup the read/write check routines for pfm_write_pmcs, pfm_write_pmds, pfm_read_pmds. - Autodetect the PMU model. No need to have the kernel compiled for Itanium, HP Simulator, or Itanium2. The support for all PMU models is included. Probing is based on processor family and platform_name, if necessary. With this patch, it is possible to use an Itanium2 compiled kernel on an Itanium 1 system and get perfmon to work. - Removed remaining dependency on CONFIG_MCKINLEY by adding a new field (flags) to pmu_config_t. Update /proc/perfmon to show the new field. - Fixed a bug in the Itanium2 pmc_ita2_write_check() where an inactive PMC13 would be considered active.
