[PATCH 0/4] perf_counter: Group reads and other patches

[Peter Zijlstra]

So Ingo really wanted to not break the current read() ABI, which is possible
with a little bit more code. Hence here a second version.

The test proglet below gives:

# gcc -o test test.c; ./test

EVNT: 0x40084b scale: 1.000000 ID: 646 CNT: 2002513 ID: 647 CNT: 2009368 ID: 648 CNT: 2009756 ID: 649 CNT: 2010162

EVNT: 0x40084b scale: 1.000000 ID: 646 CNT: 5002324 ID: 647 CNT: 5020652 ID: 648 CNT: 5022372 ID: 649 CNT: 5024119
EVNT: 0x40084c scale: 1.000000 ID: 646 CNT: 6002555 ID: 647 CNT: 6024466 ID: 648 CNT: 6026635 ID: 649 CNT: 6028829

and an the regular perf stuff also still works:

# perf stat sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
