From 8e5799b1ad2a0567fdfaaf0e91b40efee010f2c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2009 15:08:15 +0200 Subject: perf_counter: Add unique counter id Stephan raised the issue that we currently cannot distinguish between similar counters within a group (PERF_RECORD_GROUP uses the config value as identifier). Therefore, generate a new ID for each counter using a global u64 sequence counter.
