New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting. This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is with known tools like pmcstat(8). Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on instructions. Sponsored by: NETASQ MFC after: 1 month
