Subject[RFC][PATCH 3/3] Process events biarch bug: New process events connector value
From
Date
"Deprecate" existing Process Events connector interface and add a new one
that works cleanly on biarch platforms.

Any expansion of the previous event structure would break userspace's ability
to workaround the biarch incompatibility problem. Hence this patch creates a
new interface and generates events (for both when necessary).
