libpfm_intel_p6 - support for Intel P5 based processors
SYNOPSIS
#include <perfmon/pfmlib.h>
PMU name: pm, ppro, pii, piii, p6
PMU desc: Intel Pentium M, Intel Pentium Pro, Intel Pentium II, Intel Pentium III, Intel P6
DESCRIPTION
The library supports all Intel P6-based processors all the way back to the Pentium Pro. Although all those processors offers the same PMU
architecture, they differ in the events they provide.
MODIFIERS
The following modifiers are supported on all Intel P6 processors:
u Measure at user level which includes privilege levels 1, 2, 3. This corresponds to PFM_PLM3. This is a boolean modifier.
k Measure at kernel level which includes privilege level 0. This corresponds to PFM_PLM0. This is a boolean modifier.
i Invert the meaning of the event. The counter will now count cycles in which the event is not occurring. This is a boolean modifier
e Enable edge detection, i.e., count only when there is a state transition. This is a boolean modifier.
c Set the counter mask value. The mask acts as a threshold. The counter will count the number of cycles in which the number of occur-
rences of the event is greater or equal to the threshold. This is an integer modifier with values in the range [0:255].

libpfm_intel_core - support for Intel Core-based processors
SYNOPSIS
#include <perfmon/pfmlib.h>
PMU name: core
PMU desc: Intel Core
DESCRIPTION
The library supports all Intel Core-based processors that includes models 15, 23, 29.
MODIFIERS
The following modifiers are supported on Intel Core processors:
u Measure at user level which includes privilege levels 1, 2, 3. This corresponds to PFM_PLM3. This is a boolean modifier.
k Measure at kernel level which includes privilege level 0. This corresponds to PFM_PLM0. This is a boolean modifier.
i Invert the meaning of the event. The counter will now count cycles in which the event is not occurring. This is a boolean modifier
e Enable edge detection, i.e., count only when there is a state transition from no occurrence of the event to at least one occurrence.
This modifier must be combined with a counter mask modifier (m) with a value greater or equal to one. This is a boolean modifier.
c Set the counter mask value. The mask acts as a threshold. The counter will count the number of cycles in which the number of occur-
rences of the event is greater or equal to the threshold. This is an integer modifier with values in the range [0:255].

I would like to know as what all Unix types can be installed on PC, i.e. Intel Pentium processor and having HDD of let us say 4 GB or so? What RAM would be sufficient? I know for sure that Linux is free and can be installed on PC, can some one tell about other UNIX types which can be obtained for... (3 Replies)
Hi,
I was trying to build Linux Benchmarks with latest Intel C++ Compiler.
When I used -ipo (inter-procedural optimization) option, arithmetic test (arith.c) failed on execution.
The problem is Intel compiler's advanced optimization option (-ipo) optimizes much more than expected and this... (50 Replies)

I have an old Pentium box pieced together from parts, and the 2G hard drive in it is showing signs of a coming death. I have purchased an 8G HD to replace the old one, and I plan to install NetBSD 1.6.1.
The machine is to be used as a home server, with Mail handled as fetchmail -> sendmail ->... (4 Replies)

Hi there,
I'm in the process of choosing a machine to be a server and I was wondering how to interpret CPU description.
Example1:

I've got RHEL5 running in CLI mode on a powerful workstation. It was a Pentium Pro 200 Mhz, but was upgraded to the new Pentium II Overdrive 333 Mhz chip. This machine has 128 MB of RAM. The video card is an ATI Radeon 9250.
RHEL5 runs fine in 128 MB in CLI mode. It won't run in GUI mode... (7 Replies)
I have not been a Windows user at home since the first Intel Macs came out and I am thinking of moving to Linux and putting either Fedora or Ubuntu on a laptop as a clean install.
