*	perf top: Fall back to cpu-clock-tick hrtimer sampling if no cycle counter ↵	Ingo Molnar	2009-06-07	1	-5/+5
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	available On architectures/CPUs without PMU support but with perfcounters enabled 'perf top' currently fails because it cannot create a cycle based hw-perfcounter. Fall back to the cpu-clock-tick sw-perfcounter in this case, which is hrtimer based and will always work (as long as perfcounters is enabled).

*	perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/	Ingo Molnar	2009-06-06	1	-0/+80
	Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the (new) tools/ directory.
