From 7730d8655880f41f2ea519aca2ca6a1413dfd2c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2009 12:48:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf_counter: allow and require one-page mmap on counting counters A brainfart stopped single page mmap()s working. The rest of the code should be perfectly fine with not having any data pages.
