Subject: [PATCH v10 22/35] perf jevents: Add load store breakdown metrics ldst for Intel
Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2026 11:10:52 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108191105.695131-23-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260108191105.695131-1-irogers@google.com>
Give breakdown of number of instructions. Use the counter mask (cmask)
to show the number of cycles taken to retire the instructions.
Tested-by: Thomas Falcon <thomas.falcon@intel.com>
