ConfigurePMCs

  • Artikel

Configures the four hardware Performance Monitor Counters (PMCs) to enable a title to read the counters directly for the title code.

Syntax

HRESULT ConfigurePMCs(  
         unsigned int eventIndex0,  
         unsigned int eventIndex1,  
         unsigned int eventIndex2,  
         unsigned int eventIndex3  
)

Parameters

eventIndex0   
Type: unsigned int

Index of the event to count.

eventIndex1   
Type: unsigned int

Index of the event to count.

eventIndex2   
Type: unsigned int

Index of the event to count.

eventIndex3   
Type: unsigned int

Index of the event to count.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

Success or error code.

Code Description
S_OK Success.
E_INVALIDARG One or more of the indexes is out of range.
E_ACCESS_DENIED Access to the driver is denied.

Remarks

There are four hardware counters that can be configured directly to count events. The events are listed in the table below. The index of the event is used both to specify the event for this method, and to retrieve the count using GetPMCValue.

Index Event Description
0 Reserved Reserved.
1 RetiredSseAvx The number of SSE/AVX operations retired.
2 DCacheAccesses The number of accesses to the L1 data cache for load and store references.
3 DCacheMisses The number of L1 data cache references which miss the data cache.
4 DCacheRefills The number of L1 data cache refills satisfied from the L2 cache (and/or the northbridge) from uncatchable memory.
5 L1DTLBMissL2DTLBHit The number of L1 data cache accesses that miss in the L1 DTLB and hit in the L2 DTLB.
6 DtlbMiss The number of L1 data cache accesses that miss in both the L1 and L2 DTLBs.
7 L1DtlbHit The number of L1 data cache accesses that hit in the L1 DTLB.
8 L1ITLBMissL2ITLBHit The number of instruction fetches that miss in the L1 ITLB but hit in the L2 ITLB.
9 ItlbMiss The number of instruction fetches that miss in the 4K ITLB and 2M ITLB.
10 ItlbInstructionFetchHits The number of instruction fetches that hit in the 4K ITLB and 2M ITLB.
11 MisalignedAccess The number of L1 data cache accesses that are misaligned. Misaligned accesses incur at least an extra cache access and an extra cycle of latency on reads.
12 IneffectiveSWPrefetches The number of software prefetches that do not cause an actual L1 data cache refill.
13 CpuClkNotHalted The number of clocks that the CPU is not in a halted state.
14 RetiredInstructions The number of instructions retired (execution completed and architectural state updated). This count includes exceptions and interrupts.
15 BranchInstructions The number of branch instructions retired. This includes all types of architectural control flow changes, including exceptions and interrupts.
16 MispredictedBranch The number of branch instructions retired, of any type, that were not correctly predicted in either target or direction. This includes those for which prediction is not attempted (far control transfers, exceptions and interrupts), and excludes resyncs.
17 RetiredTakenBranch The number of taken branches that were retired. This includes all types of architectural control flow changes, including exceptions and interrupts, and excludes resyncs.
18 RetiredFarSyscall The number of far syscalls retired.
19 RetiredNearReturns The number of near return instructions retired.
20 RetiredReturnsMispredicted A near return instruction was retired that mispredicted in either target or direction.
21 MispredictedTakenBranch A taken branch instruction was retired that mispredicted in target address (but not in direction).
22 MmxFPInstructions A floating point (x87, MMX, or SSE) instruction was retired.
23 RetiredFPInstructions The number of SSE/AVX operations retired.
24 RetiredMmxInstructions The number of MMX operations retired.
25 RetiredSseInstructions The number of SSE operations retired.
26 InstructionFetchStalls The number cycles that the instruction fetch engine is stalled.
27 DataCachePrefetches L1 data cache prefetches.
28 DataCacheReadSize The number of L1 data cache reads.
29 DataCacheWriteSize The number of L1 data cache writes.
30 ITLBReloadStalls The number of cycles when the fetch engine is stalled for an ITLB reload.
