Perf counters wasn't even in the 2.6.29 kernel so
I guess you are basing this work on a completely out of date
perf version.

We can't take patches based on 29. We can't even review
them, that doesn't make sense given the tons of things that have
changed since 2.6.29

We need patches against 2.6.32-rc1
