Ok, this looks like a useful extension to intel_gpu_top (until the day arrives when we have a real, integrated profiler!). I don't see the need for a separate utility with lots of code duplicated just for a couple of extra features. Care to respin as a patch against intel_gpu_top? (I want to resist the temptation of making a second perf... especially as I'd like to make all this information available through perf!) -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre
