SubjectRe: Fix Blackfin HARDWARE_PM support
Date
On Tue 15 Jan 2008 12:42, Mathieu Desnoyers pondered:
> This patch restores the blackfin Hardware Performance Monitor Profiling
> support that was killed by
> commit 09cadedbdc01f1a4bea1f427d4fb4642eaa19da9.
>
> Since there seems to be no good reason to behave differently from other
> architectures, it now automatically selects the hardware performance
> counters whenever the profiling is activated.
>
> mach-common/irqpanic.c: pm_overflow
> calls pm_overflow_handler which is in oprofile/op_model_bf533.c. I doubt
> that setting HARDWARE_PM as "m" will work at all, since the
> pm_overflow_handler should be in the core kernel image because it is
> called by irqpanic.c.

> Therefore, I change HARDWARE_PM from a tristate to a bool.
