RHEA-2012:0267 - Product Enhancement Advisory
Synopsis
oprofile enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated oprofile packages that add two enhancements are now available for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
OProfile is a system-wide profiler for Linux systems. The profiling runs
transparently in the background and profile data can be collected at any time.
OProfile uses the hardware performance counters provided on many processors, and
can use the Real Time Clock (RTC) for profiling on processors without counters.
This update adds the following enhancements:
- Previously, the OProfile profiler did not provide the performance monitoring
events for the Intel Core i3, i5, i7 and other processors formerly code named
"Sandy Bridge". This update provides the files specific to the performance
events of processors formerly code named "Sandy Bridge" and adds support for
identification of these processors. (BZ#713667)
- Previously, the OProfile profiler did not identify the processors based on the
Intel Xeon Processor E56XX, L56XX, W36XX and X56XX families. As a result,
OProfile used the fallback Intel Architected events. With this update, OProfile
provides the events specific to the processors based on the Intel Xeon Processor
E56XX, L56XX, W36XX and X56XX families. (BZ#643476)
All OProfile users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which add
these enhancements.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
