dtlb Metrics Summed for Entire Run

This section describes the metrics summed over the entire run of your application under HP Caliper.

Metrics for Integrity Servers Itanium 2 Systems

DATA_REFERENCES

The number of data memory references issued into memory

 

pipeline. Includes check loads, non-cacheable accesses,

 

RSE operations, semaphores, and floating-point memory

 

references. The count includes wrong path operations but

 

excludes predicated off operations. This event does not

 

include virtual hash page table (VHPT) memory references.

L2DTLB_MISSES

The number of L2 DTLB misses (which is the same as

 

references to HPW, DTLB_HIT=0) for demand requests.

DTLB_INSERTS_HPW

The number of virtual hash page table entries inserted into

 

DTLB by hardware page walker (HPW).

Total L1 Data TLB References

Total number of L1 data TLB references.

Percentage of Data References

Percentage of data references that was satisfied in L1 DTLB

Covered by L1 and L2 DTLB

or L2 DTLB. This is calculated as the following: 100 * (1–

 

L2DTLB_MISSES / DATA_REFERENCES).

Percentage of Data References

Percentage of data references that were satisfied by the

Covered by the HPW

hardware page walker (HPW). This is calculated as the

 

following: 100 * (DTLB_INSERTS_HPW /

 

DATA_REFERENCES).

Percentage of Data References

Percentage of data references that were serviced by the

Covered by Software Trap

software trap handler for the TLB misses fault. This is

 

calculated as the following: 100 * ((L2DTLB_MISSES -

 

DTLB_INSERTS_HPW) / DATA_REFERENCES).

Percentage of L2 DTLB Misses Covered by the HPW

Percentage of L2 DTLB misses that were serviced by the hardware page walker (HPW). This is calculated as the following: 100 * (DTLB_INSERTS_HPW / L2DTLB_MISSES).

Metrics for Integrity Servers Dual-Core Itanium 2 and Itanium 9300 Quad-Core Processor Systems

BACK_END_BUBBLE.ALL

Number of cycles when the backend of the pipeline was

 

stalled. This is the number of cycles lost (stall cycles) due to

 

any of five possible events (FPU/L1D, RSE, EXE,

 

branch/exception, or the frontend).

BE_EXE_BUBBLE.FRALL

Full Pipe Bubbles in Main Pipe due to FR/FR or FR/load

 

dependency stalls. This is the number of cycles lost (stall

 

cycles) due to FR/FR or FR/load dependency stalls.

BE_EXE_BUBBLE.GRALL

Full Pipe Bubbles in Main Pipe due to GR/GR or GR/load

 

dependency stalls. This is the number of cycles lost (stall

 

cycles) due to GR/GR or GR/load dependency.

BE_EXE_BUBBLE.GRGR

Full Pipe Bubbles in Main Pipe due to GR/GR dependency

 

stalls. This is the number of cycles lost (stall cycles) due to

 

GR/GR dependency stalls.

CPU_OP_CYCLES.ALL

Number of elapsed CPU operating cycles.

DATA_REFERENCES

The number of data memory references issued into memory

 

pipeline. Includes check loads, non-cacheable accesses,

 

RSE operations, semaphores, and floating-point memory

 

references. The count includes wrong path operations but

 

excludes predicated off operations. This event does not

 

include VHPT memory references.

DTLB_INSERTS_HPW

Number of virtual hash page table entries inserted into the

 

DTLB by the hardware page walker (HPW).
