Hello,

I am wondering if there is another event in Itanium 2 processor that can
return information about instruction pointer that trigger the event, other
than EAR.

Can INST_RETIRED event return the instruction pointer ? I recently read a
paper that used it to get the IP, but in perfmon doc, the following
script:

pfmon -e cpu_cycles,IA64_inst_Retired ls /dev/null

only returns the number of retired instructions.

Any suggestion, corrections or comments are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
