Hi -list,
I'm happy to announce new project adding support for process and system
profiling using the hardware performance counters present on many
CPU architectures.
The brief goals of the project are:
1. To support per-process hardware profiling, supporting performance
measurement APIs like PAPI.
2. To support low-overhead `whole-system' profiling --- profiling the
kernel and applications together.
More information about this project is available under:
http://people.freebsd.org/~jkoshy/projects/perf-measurement/
I've just started, so feedback from the community on the goals,
directions and design of the project is welcome.
Regards,
Koshy
