Hi, I am working on updating the fedora rawhide packages to the newest versions of libpfm and papi. The papi is built using the upstream version of libpfm-4.3.0. When running the papi tests I noticed a number errors reported by the papi tests like the following:
Running ctests/multiplex1:PAPI Error: papi_preset: Error finding event BR_INST_R ETIRED:CONDITIONAL. PAPI Error: papi_preset: Error finding event BR_INST_RETIRED:CONDITIONAL. PAPI Error: papi_preset: Error finding event L2_RQSTS:RFO_HITS. PAPI Error: papi_preset: Error finding event BR_INST_RETIRED:CONDITIONAL.

PAPI Error: papi_preset: Error finding event BR_INST_RETIRED:CONDITIONAL. PAPI Error: papi_preset: Error finding event L2_RQSTS:RFO_HITS. These errors didn't show up with the version of libpfm4 bundled with papi. There are some differences between the intel_ivb_event.h file in the bundled libpfm4 and the upstream libpfm-4.3.0. I copied over the intel_ivb_event.h from papi into pfm-4.3.0 and that seemed to get rid of the errors. The question is what are the correct names for those ivb events? Are the ones in papi correct and need to be copied over to libpfm? -Will ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
