Hi acme,

I got nothing output as below, wondering if it was due to too few interrupts ?
Is it possbile to get perf top based on samples from other Perf events?

[root@localhost clocksource0]# rpm -qa | grep perf
perf-2.6.36-0.35.rc7.git0.fc15.x86_64
[root@localhost clocksource0]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.36-0.35.rc7.git0.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP
Wed Oct 6 22:02:54 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@localhost clocksource0]# perf top

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PerfTop: 0 irqs/sec kernel:-nan% exact: -nan% [1000Hz
cycles], (all, 2 CPUs)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

samples pcnt DSO
