NAME

       PAPI_start -

       Start counting hardware events in an event set.

SYNOPSIS

Detailed Description
       C Interface:
	   #include <papi.h>
	    int PAPI_start( int  EventSet );

       Parameters:
	   EventSet -- an integer handle for a PAPI event set as created by PAPI_create_eventset

       Return values:
	   PAPI_OK
	   PAPI_EINVAL -- One or more of the arguments is invalid.
	   PAPI_ESYS -- A system or C library call failed inside PAPI, see the errno variable.
	   PAPI_ENOEVST -- The EventSet specified does not exist.
	   PAPI_EISRUN -- The EventSet is currently counting events.
	   PAPI_ECNFLCT -- The underlying counter hardware can not count this event and other events in the EventSet simultaneously.
	   PAPI_ENOEVNT -- The PAPI preset is not available on the underlying hardware.

       PAPI_start starts counting all of the hardware events contained in the previously defined EventSet. All counters are implicitly set to zero
       before counting. Assumes an initialized PAPI library and a properly added event set.

       Example:

	   *  int EventSet = PAPI_NULL;
	   *  long long values[2];
	   *  int ret;
	   *
	   *  ret = PAPI_create_eventset(&EventSet);
	   *  if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
	   *
	   *  // Add Total Instructions Executed to our EventSet
	   *  ret = PAPI_add_event(EventSet, PAPI_TOT_INS);
	   *  if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
	   *
	   *  // Start counting
	   *  ret = PAPI_start(EventSet);
	   *  if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
	   *  poorly_tuned_function();
	   *  ret = PAPI_stop(EventSet, values);
	   *  if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
	   *  printf("%lld
",values[0]);
	   *
