From fc1adfe306b71e094df636012f8c0fed971cad45 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Budankov Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019 10:11:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf/core, perf/x86: Introduce swap_task_ctx() method at 'struct pmu' Declare swap_task_ctx() methods at the generic and x86 specific pmu types to bridge calls to platform specific PMU code on optimized context switch path between equivalent task perf event contexts.
