pmc -c event command [options ...]
DESCRIPTION
pmc is a means of using a processor's performance-monitoring counter (PMC) facility to measure various aspects of a program's execution. It
is meant to be used in a fashion similar to time(1).
The arguments are as follows:
-h Display a list of performance counter events available on the system.
-C Cancel any performance counters that are currently running.
-c event
Count the event specified by event while running the command.
DIAGNOSTICS

included using the PERFCTRS option. See options(4) for details.
PMC counters are not supported by CPU Performance-monitoring counters are not available for the CPU.
SEE ALSO
time(1), options(4)
HISTORY

i386 architecture was written by
Jason R. Thorpe <thorpej@zembu.com>.
