Re: [perfmon2] (1) Unable to install pfmon-3.3 on POWER5+ (2) Segmentation fault on P4 in using detailed sampling format

[Corey J A. <cja...@us...>]

Hi JK,

I am the developer working on libpfm and perfmon2 for POWER.  I'm sorry to 
say that I have not done a
complete port to POWER5+ yet.  It should be working fine for POWER4, 
POWER5, and POWER6, though.
There is some code for POWER5+ (and POWER5++), but it hasn't been tested 
on real hardware yet.

It is on my to-do list, but I can't say exactly when I'll be able to 
complete the work.  However, I think the
changes needed should be fairly minor in nature, so I think once I start 
working on it, it shouldn't take very
long.
