Hi, all. Version 8 of my msr patch is now available from:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/kernel-patches.html
Some documentation is also available here.

The patch provides user space access to Model-Specific Registers (MSRs)
and Performance Monitoring Counters (PMCs) via device driver interfaces.
The patch also includes a crude page colouring algorithm (off by
default) and improvements for the MTRR interface.

This is against 2.2.0+devfs. Highlights of this release:

- Preserve computed MTRR capability in <check_cx686_cpuid>

- Do not access CR4 on CPUs without PGE feature

- Turned <set_mtrr_up> and <get_mtrr> into function pointers

Regards,

Richard....
