Software incompatibility

[cyring]

CoreFreq is incompatible with the below softwares.
(due to processor registers conflicts)

• numatop

• nmi_watchdog

1. watchdog_hld.c:
   int watchdog_nmi_enable(unsigned int cpu)

• pmu_intel

1. pmu_intel.c:
   static void reprogram_fixed_counters(struct kvm_pmu *pmu, u64 data)

2. core.c:
   static void intel_pmu_nhm_workaround(void)

3. qemu-system-x86_64
   when running qemu with argument -cpu , QEMU takes the leadership on the PMC counters;
   some MSR registers are not implemented thus ratios are unavailable.

CoreFreq does not run well with the followings:

• Kernel Crash Dump

1. Using kernel 3.10 , issues with kmem_cache_alloc() and kmem_cache_destroy() functions
