F. APPENDIX Q

Performance Instrumentation

This appendix describes and specifies performance monitors that have been implemented in the SPARC64 V processor. The appendix contains these sections:

■Performance Monitor Overview on page 201

■Performance Monitor Description on page 203

■Instruction Statistics on page 204

■Trap-Related Statistics on page 206

■MMU Event Counters on page 207

■Cache Event Counters on page 208

■UPA Event Counters on page 210

■Miscellaneous Counters on page 211

Q.1 Performance Monitor Overview

For the definitions of performance counter registers, please refer to Performance Control Register (PCR) (ASR16) and Performance Instrumentation Counter (PIC) Register (ASI 17) in Chapter 5 of Commonality.

Q.1.1 Sample Pseudocodes

Counter Clear/Set

The PICs are read/write registers (see Performance Instrumentation Counter (PIC) Register (ASR 17) on page 22). Writing zero will clear the counter; writing any other value will set that value. The following pseudocode procedure clears all PICs (assuming privileged access):
