Package: pfmon (3.2.060926-2)

Tool for using CPU Performance Monitoring Units (PMUs)

This package contains pfmon, a tool to monitor performance using CPU Performance Monitoring Units (PMUs). Pfmon can monitor standalone programs or the entire system on both UP and SMP Linux systems. This version supports both the Itanium and Itanium 2 processors, Pentium M/P6 and AMD x86_64. It requires a kernel perfmon-2.x subsystem to function properly, which implies at least a 2.6.12 kernel.

A working perfmon kernel module is also required (provided by default with Debian 2.6.x kernels).
