Re: [pcp] rpm pmda

[Stan Cox <scox@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The scox/dev pcpfans branch has been updated: ( 
662ee2e1dbff6146b9fcf4fa16a710fd7306ae10 ): There is no longer a 
separate hash table; instead pmdaCacheLookupName is used for the 
lookups.  Switched to mutexes since there is only one reader.   Improved 
the metric initalization.
Here is a small test of the pmcd driven rpm pmda.
