papi (Performance Application Programming Interface)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PAPI provides the tool designer and application engineer with a
|
||
|
|
consistent interface and methodology for use of the performance
|
||
|
|
counter hardware found in most major microprocessors. PAPI enables
|
||
|
|
software engineers to see, in near real time, the relation between
|
||
|
|
software performance and processor events.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition, PAPI provides access to a collection of components that
|
||
|
|
expose performance measurement opportunites across the hardware and
|
||
|
|
software stack.
