Subject: [PATCH v5 10/22] perf jevents: Add L2 metrics for Intel
Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2025 21:10:51 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250829041104.4186320-11-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250829041104.4186320-1-irogers@google.com>

Give a breakdown of various L2 counters as metrics, including totals,
reads, hardware prefetcher, RFO, code and evictions.
