Re: [PATCH v1 1/2] perf,x86: add Intel RAPL PMU support

[Andi Kleen]

Quick review. Thanks for working on this. It should work
nicely with ucevent -- people already asked for reporting 
power numbers there.

Having a comment at the beginning of each file with two sentences
what the file roughly does and what "RAPL" actually is would be useful.

Also a pointer to the SDM chapters is also useful.

Add a cpu_relax()

What lock protects this add?

Check n here in case it overflowed

Doesn't this need a lock of some form? AFAIK we can do parallel
CPU startup now.

Similar to the other code walking the CPUs.

You need to check for Intel CPU here, as this is called unconditionally.

A more modern way to do this is to use x86_cpu_id. 
This would in principle allow making it a module later (if perf ever
supports that)

Need more model numbers for Haswell (see the main perf driver)
