Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perf: Implement get_cpu_str()
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2014 17:17:55 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140806001754.GA28735@us.ibm.com> (raw)
powerpc/perf: Implement get_cpu_str()
With a file like ~/.cache/pmu-events/004d0100-core.json describing
Power8 PMU events, we would need to run:
perf stat \
--events-file ~/.cache/pmu-events/004d0100-core.json \
-e PM_CYC sleep 1
With this get_cpu_str(), on Powerpc, we can skip the --events-file option
and run:
perf stat -e PM_CYC sleep 1
