NAME¶
cpucycles-info - report information about CPU cycle counters
SYNOPSIS¶
-
cpucycles-info
DESCRIPTION¶
cpucycles-info prints human-readable information about the cycle counters considered by cpucycles().
The format is subject to change but currently includes a cpucycles version line, cpucycles tracesetup lines showing which cycle counters are considered and how precise they seem to be (with smaller precision values being better, except that precision 0 means a cycle counter that does not seem to work), a cpucycles persecond line about the selected cycle counter, a cpucycles implementation line about the selected cycle counter, and cpucycles observed persecond lines about the selected cycle counter.
