SANDYBRIDGE UNCORE FIXED FUNCTION PMCS

These PMCs and their supported events are documented in pmc.ucf(3). Not all CPUs in this family implement fixed-function counters.

SANDYBRIDGE UNCORE PROGRAMMABLE PMCS

The programmable PMCs support the following capabilities:

Event Qualifiers

Event specifiers for these PMCs support the following common qualifiers:

cmask=value

Configure the PMC to increment only if the number of configured events measured in a cycle is greater than or equal to value.

edge

Configure the PMC to count the number of de-asserted to asserted transitions of the conditions expressed by the other qualifiers. If specified, the counter will increment only once whenever a condition becomes true, irrespective of the number of clocks during which the condition remains true.

inv

Invert the sense of comparison when the “cmask” qualifier is present, making the counter increment when the number of events per cycle is less than the value specified by the “cmask” qualifier.

Event Specifiers (Programmable PMCs)

Sandy Bridge programmable PMCs support the following events:
