Detailed Description
Provide a virtualized PMU to guests to allow better profiling using standard tools. This is targeted for the 3.3 kernel upstream and will land in Fedora 17.
Benefit to Fedora
Users with KVM guests will be able to use standard profiling tools which allow for better monitoring and debugging.
Scope
Kernel updates scheduled for mainline 3.3 kernel already in F17 Qemu userspace updates targeted for the 1.1 release already in F17
How To Test
