pfm_get_version - get library version
SYNOPSIS
#include <perfmon/pfmlib.h>
int pfm_get_version(void);
DESCRIPTION
This function can be called at any time to get the revision level of the library. It is not necessary to have invoked pfm_initialize()
prior to calling this function.
The revision number is composed of two fields: a major number and a minor number. Both can be extracted using macros provided in the header
file:
PFMLIB_MAJ_VERSION(v)
returns the major number encoded in v.
PFMLIB_MIN_VERSION(v)
returns the minor number encoded in v.
RETURN
The function is always successful, i.e., it always returns the 32-bit version number.

pfm_get_event_next - iterate over events
SYNOPSIS
#include <perfmon/pfmlib.h>
int pfm_get_event_next(int idx);
DESCRIPTION
Events are uniquely identified with opaque integer identifiers. There is no guaranteed order within identifiers. Thus, to list all the
events, it is necessary to use iterators.
Events are grouped in tables within the libary. A table usually corresponds to a PMU model or family. The library contains support for mul-
tiple PMU models, thus it has multiple tables. Based on the host hardware and software environments, tables get activated when the library
is initialized via pfm_initialize(). Events from activated tables are called active events. Events from non-activated tables are called
supported events.
Event identifiers are usually retrieved via pfm_find_event() or when encoding events.
To iterate over a list of events for a given PMU model, all that is needed is an initial identifier for the PMU. The first event identifier
is usually obainted via pfm_get_pmu_info().
The pfm_get_event_next() function returns the identifier of next supported event after the one passed in idx. This iterator stops when the
last event for the PMU is passed as argument, in which case the function returns -1.
void list_pmu_events(pfm_pmu_t pmu)
{
struct pfm_event_info info;
struct pfm_pmu_info pinfo;
int i, ret;
memset(&info, 0, sizeof(info));
memset(&pinfo, 0, sizeof(pinfo));
info.size = sizeof(info);
pinfo.size = sizeof(pinfo);
ret = pfm_get_pmu_info(pmu, &pinfo);
if (ret != PFM_SUCCESS)
errx(1, "cannot get pmu info");
for (i = pinfo.first_event; i != -1; i = pfm_get_event_next(i)) {
ret = pfm_get_event_info(i, &info);
if (ret != PFM_SUCCESS)
errx(1, "cannot get event info");
printf("%s Event: %s::%s
",
pinfo.present ? "Active" : "Supported",
pinfo.name, info.name);
}
}
RETURN
The function returns the identifier of the next supported event. It returns -1 when the argument is already the last event for the PMU.
ERRORS
No error code, besides -1, is returned by this function.
