From: Stephane Eranian Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2013 22:30:11 +0000 (+0200) Subject: perf: Fix interrupt handler timing harness X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~5456^3~47 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e5302920da9ef23f9d19d4e9ac85704cc25bee7a;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git perf: Fix interrupt handler timing harness This patch fixes a serious bug in: 14c63f17b1fd perf: Drop sample rate when sampling is too slow There was an misunderstanding on the API of the do_div() macro. It returns the remainder of the division and this was not what the function expected leading to disabling the interrupt latency watchdog. This patch also remove a duplicate assignment in perf_sample_event_took().
