Exported functions are generally not MT- safe. One exception is rte_pmu_read() which can be called concurrently once everything has been setup. In order to initialize the library, following sequence of calls performed by the same EAL thread is required: rte_pmu_init() rte_pmu_add_event() Afterwards all threads can read events by calling rte_pmu_read(). Definition in file rte_pmu.h. Macro Definition Documentation #define RTE_MAX_NUM_GROUP_EVENTS 8 Maximum number of events in a group. Definition at line 48 of file rte_pmu.h. Function Documentation static __rte_experimental __rte_always_inline uint64_t __rte_pmu_read_userpage (struct perf_event_mmap_page * pc) [static] Warning EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice. Read PMU counter. Warning This should not be called directly. Parameters pc Pointer to the mmapped user page. Returns Counter value read from hardware. Definition at line 95 of file rte_pmu.h. __rte_experimental int __rte_pmu_enable_group (struct rte_pmu_event_group * group) Warning EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice. Enable group of events on the calling lcore. Warning This should not be called directly. Parameters group Pointer to the group which will be enabled. Returns 0 in case of success, negative value otherwise. __rte_experimental int rte_pmu_init (void) Warning EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice. Initialize PMU library. Returns 0 in case of success, negative value otherwise. __rte_experimental void rte_pmu_fini (void) Warning EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice. Finalize PMU library. __rte_experimental int rte_pmu_add_event (const char * name) Warning EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice. Add event to the group of enabled events. Parameters name Name of an event listed under /sys/bus/event_source/devices/pmu/events, where PMU is a placeholder for an event source. Returns Event index in case of success, negative value otherwise. static __rte_experimental __rte_always_inline uint64_t rte_pmu_read (unsigned int index) [static] Warning EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice. Read hardware counter configured to count occurrences of an event. This is called by an lcore (EAL thread) bound exclusively to particular CPU and may not work as expected if gets migrated elsewhere. Reason being event group is pinned hence not supposed to be multiplexed with any other events. This is the only API which can be called concurrently by different lcores. Parameters index Index of an event to be read. Returns Event value read from register. In case of errors or lack of support, 0 is returned. In other words, stream of zeros in a trace file indicates problem with reading particular PMU event register. Definition at line 204 of file rte_pmu.h.
