Public bug reported:
I am seeing an issue with the Cortex-A78 PMU counters on the
Genio1200-evk.
Linux perf reports <not counted> for Cortex-A78 PMUs when I run the following
commands:
taskset -c 7 perf stat -e cycles sleep 5
taskset -c 7 perf stat -r r11 sleep 5
Infact none of the standard PMU events on the Cortex-A78 work when using
the raw PMU event register values such as:
-e r08
-e r11
-e r13
:
...... etc.
I also see this behaviour when an application using libpfm4 OR
perf_event_open() API is pinned to one of the 4xCortex-A78 on the board.
When I run the above perf commands and applications pinned to the
Cortex-A55 cores the PMU events get reported correctly.
Please let me know if you need more details.
Kind regards,
Umair
