PMC.UCF(3)	       FreeBSD Library Functions Manual		    PMC.UCF(3)

NAME
     pmc.ucf --	measurement events for Intel uncore fixed function performance
     counters.

LIBRARY
     Performance Counters Library (libpmc, -lpmc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pmc.h>

DESCRIPTION
     Each fixed-function PMC measures a	specific hardware event.  The number
     of	fixed-function PMCs implemented	in a CPU can vary.  The	number of
     fixed-function PMCs present can be	determined at runtime by using func-
     tion pmc_cpuinfo(3).

     Intel uncore fixed-function PMCs are documented in	"Volume	3B: System
     Programming Guide,	Part 2", Intel(R) 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
     Developes Manual, Order Number: 253669-033US, Intel Corporation, December
     2009.

   PMC Capabilities
     Fixed-function PMCs support the following capabilities:

     Capability		  Support
     PMC_CAP_CASCADE	  No
     PMC_CAP_EDGE	  No
     PMC_CAP_INTERRUPT	  No
     PMC_CAP_INVERT	  No
     PMC_CAP_READ	  Yes
     PMC_CAP_PRECISE	  No
     PMC_CAP_SYSTEM	  No
     PMC_CAP_TAGGING	  No
     PMC_CAP_THRESHOLD	  No
     PMC_CAP_USER	  No
     PMC_CAP_WRITE	  Yes

   Class Name Prefix
     These PMCs	are named using	a class	name prefix of ``ucf-''.

   Event Specifiers (Fixed Function PMCs)
     The fixed function	PMCs are selectable using the following	event names:

     UCLOCK  (Fixed Function Counter 0)	The fixed-function uncore counter
	     increments	at the rate of the U-clock.  The frequency of the
	     uncore clock domain can be	determined from	the uncore clock ratio
	     which is available	in the PCI configuration space register	at
	     offset C0H	under device number 0 and Function 0.
