Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] add perf-probe support on ARM
Quoted 17 lines · Will Deacon
Perf-probe uses the KProbe events tracer to place and monitor probes on the running Kernel.
This patch series adds both Kernel and tool support for this feature on ARM.
Patches based on 2.6.35-rc3 [although perf record is currently broken on all architectures for probe tracepoints. These patches also apply cleanly to -tip/master where perf record works properly.]

Hi Will,
I've had a quick play on an ARMv6 board and these patches look good and appear to work!
