I was performing the test you mentioned in the above thread to reproduce the
problem. However, I was not able to reproduce the issue. Did you receive any
confirmation from Dmitry this fixed his issue for oprofile?
By the way, I did not find too many details about the actual fix in the above
thread. It appears to be mapping the interrupt to another channel. Can you
clarify what this change is doing?
I did see the following kernel dump when running the perf record test. Applying
your change did not help. Have you seen this? I am using the linux-omap master
branch.

At the end of the test I also saw ...
"Processed 18048959 events and lost 26 chunks!

Let me know if you have any thoughts.
Cheers
Jon
