oprofile, s390: Enhance OProfile to support System zs hardware sampling feature
OProfile is enhanced to export all files for controlling System z's hardware sampling, and to invoke hwsampler exported functions to initialize and use System z's hardware sampling. The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup succeeded: A new directory for hardware sampling based files /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/ The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler to modify the actual sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages) /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks The following files are read only and show the possible minimum sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval the possible maximum sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel oops.
