Subject: [PATCH] perf, x86: Enable PEBS mode automatically for mem-{loads,stores} v3
Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2013 16:03:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374188619-19220-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
[The patch to enable this in the user tools has been sent separately]
With the earlier patches to automatically try cpu// and add
a precise sys attribute, we can now enable PEBS for the mem-loads,
mem-stores events everywhere.
This allows to use
perf record -e mem-loads ...
instead of
perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/p ...
Always use precise=2 even though it is costly pre-Haswell
Cc: eranian@google.com
v2: Different white space
v3: Always use precise=2, as people seem to think overhead doesn't matter.
