[PATCH 2.6.12-rc1-mm1 3/3] perfctr: 64-bit values in register descriptors

From: Mikael Pettersson
Date: Tue Mar 22 2005 - 22:04:43 EST


- <linux/perfctr.h>: Change value fields in register descriptors
to 64 bits. This will be needed for ppc64, and ppc32 user-space
on ppc64 kernels, and may eventually also be needed on x86.
We could have different descriptor types for 32 and 64-bit
registers, but that just complicates things for no real benefit.
