Hi, all. Version 4 of my msr patch is now available from:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/kernel-patches.html
Some documentation is also available here.

The patch provides user space access to Model-Specific Registers (MSRs)
and Performance Monitoring Counters (PMCs) via device driver interfaces.

This is against 2.2.0+devfs. Highlights of this release:

- Included experimental page colouring for x86 (other arch's will
follow when people tell me how to find out L2 cache size). Page
colouring is enabled via an ioctl() on /proc/<pid>/mem

Regards,

Richard....
