http://lttng.org/content/download You might have some luck getting a hold of 
the maintains of LTTng, I heard rumors a few years ago of them having a IA64 
tool that might help. I have no idea of its state.

Good luck!

I'm looking for cache miss profiles, pipeline stalls, etc., in a new
app I'm porting to Itanium.  I think I said, tools for the PMU ---
i.e., perfcounter/perfmon in the kernel, and
q-tools/pfmon/oprofile/papi/caliper in userspace.
