1`perfmon' is a sample program to access the performance-monitoring
2counters on Pentium and Pentium Pro CPUs. See perfmon(4) for a
3description of this facility.

5The program takes the following options:
6
7 -u count events in user mode
8 -o count events in kernel mode

--- 4 unchanged lines hidden (view full) ---

13 -s n sleep `n' seconds between loop iterations (default 0)
14
15The following options are not implemented on Pentium CPUs:
16
17 -m n use count mask `n'
18 -i invert sense of count mask comparison
19 -U n use unit mask `n'

21There is one mandatory argument, which must be the number of the counter.
22All numbers can be specified in any format acceptable to strtol(3).
