[PATCH 7/8] arm: perf: dynamically allocate cpu hardware data

Mark Rutland mark.rutland at arm.com
Tue Oct 21 06:11:23 PDT 2014


To support multiple PMUs, each PMU will need its own accounting data.
As we don't know how (in general) many PMUs we'll have to support at
compile-time, we must allocate the data at runtime dynamically
