It calculates IPC from the cycles and instruction counts and compares it with the shadow stat for both global aggregation (default) and no aggregation mode. $ perf stat -a -A -e cycles,instructions sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': CPU0 39,580,880 cycles CPU1 45,426,945 cycles CPU2 31,151,685 cycles CPU3 55,167,421 cycles CPU0 17,073,564 instructions # 0.43 insn per cycle CPU1 34,955,764 instructions # 0.77 insn per cycle CPU2 15,688,459 instructions # 0.50 insn per cycle CPU3 34,699,217 instructions # 0.63 insn per cycle 1.003275495 seconds time elapsed In this example, the 'insn per cycle' should be matched to the number for each cpu. For CPU2, 0.50 = 15,688,459 / 31,151,685 .

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
