[PATCH 3/3] selftests: Add test of PMU instruction counting on powerpc
From: Michael Ellerman
Date: Wed Jul 31 2013 - 00:56:55 EST
This commit adds a test of instruction counting using the PMU on powerpc.
Although the bulk of the code is architecture agnostic, the code needs to
run a precisely sized loop which is implemented in assembler.
