From 716c69fecacd42f2a304a97158e04af2786a3f65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2009 17:31:52 +0200 Subject: perf top: Fall back to cpu-clock-tick hrtimer sampling if no cycle counter available On architectures/CPUs without PMU support but with perfcounters enabled 'perf top' currently fails because it cannot create a cycle based hw-perfcounter. Fall back to the cpu-clock-tick sw-perfcounter in this case, which is hrtimer based and will always work (as long as perfcounters is enabled).
