Product Enhancement Advisory

Red Hat Lightspeed patch analysis

Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.

View affected systems

Topic

An enhanced oprofile package is now available.

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 updated oprofile package adds the following enhancement:

  • OProfile now supports Intel Xeon (formerly Nehalem) processor performance

events. (BZ#640718)

Users of oprofile are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which adds
this enhancement.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat
Network to apply this update are available at
