      Oprofile Multiplexing Patch · 1a960b40
      Jason Yeh authored
      
      This patch introduces multiplexing support for the Oprofile kernel
      module. It basically adds a new function pointer in oprofile_operator
      allowing each architecture to supply its callback to switch between
      different sets of event when the timer expires. Userspace tools can
      modify the time slice through /dev/oprofile/time_slice.
      
      It also modifies the number of counters exposed to the userspace through
      /dev/oprofile. For example, the number of counters for AMD CPUs are
      changed to 32 and multiplexed in the sets of 4.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
