attach_cpu.c

Go to the documentation of this file.

/*
 * This test case creates an event set and attaches it to a cpu.  This causes only activity
 * on that cpu to get counted.  The test case then starts the event set does a little work and
 * then stops the event set.  It then prints out the event, count and cpu number which was used
 * during the test case.
 *
 * Since this test case does not try to force its own execution to the cpu which it is using to
 * count events, it is fairly normal to get zero counts printed at the end of the test.  But every
 * now and then it will count the cpu where the test case is running and then the counts will be non-zero.
 *
 * The test case allows the user to specify which cpu should be counted by providing an argument to the
 * test case (ie: ./attach_cpu 3).  Sometimes by trying different cpu numbers with the test case, you
 * can find the cpu used to run the test (because counts will look like cycle counts).
