Yoshio -
I agree that we need to resolve the 16/32 bit counter issue.
Does Toshiba support a completely different kernel patch from IBM?
If Toshiba uses both 16 and 32 bit counters, shouldn't PMU_CELL_NUM_COUNTERS
in pfmlib_cell.h somehow reflect that rather than being hard-coded to 8?
How does one decide (through libpfm) to use 16 vs 32?
The bug in pfm_cell_get_event_code has been fixed and pushed into the
repository.
Thanks,
- d
