I'm sure certain scheduler people could comment here too on where that gets you. The kernel I run is "Linux" not "Ingoix". So I await a comment from Linus on this issue. If it turns out that he's happy with Ingo's work, fine. It just means I'll have to start maintaining some perf counter related patches out of tree for those of us who actually like having control on what we're measuring.
