Steven This is a fix to enable Oprofile to work on the netchannel2 2.6.27 tree. This is to address a collision for escape codes used to represent domain switches in Xen and CPU switches in cell processors which were developed in parallel and used the same code. There was a discussion on the Oprofile mailing list a while ago and it was decided that we would use different Oprofile codes for x86 and ia64 archs (which are the only ones that support Oprofile in Xen) in order to preserve backward compatibility for users. The Oprofile user level tools expect different escape codes depending on the architecture. We need to make sure the kernel generates compatible escape codes. I think this should be also pushed to the 2.6.27 XenClient tree. Thanks Renato Attachment:
