Hello

I've used "inst_stored:stores" event to get a deterministic number for a
given program execution on my Core2Duo workstation.

Recently, I got a brand new i7 machine with 8 cores, but I found that
"inst_stored:stores" is not supported in the i7.
I've tried a couple of other events such as "inst_retired",
"BR_INST_RETIRED", and "MEM_STORE_RETIRED" but none gave the deterministic
result.

What other events can be used as deterministic event sources?

The following is detected PMU model using examples/check_events on my i7
computer.

Detected PMU models:
[14, nhm, "Intel Nehalem"]
[15, nhm_unc, "Intel Nehalem uncore"]
[16, ix86arch, "Intel X86 architectural PMU"]
[50, perf, "perf_events generic PMU"]

Best
