about a Multi_core event BUS_HITM_DRV

When I test the Multi_core event BUS_HITM_DRV with vtune, I get the event BUS_HITM_DRV.THIS_AGENT is far lower than BUS_HITM_DRV.ALL_AGENTS.(about 1/2 of it)

And I think it shouldn't be that according to the explain which vtune guide gives about ALL_AGENTS and THIS_AGENT as follows:

THIS_AGENT:Counts bus transactions initiated by this bus agent only.

ALL_AGENTS:Counts bus transactions initiated by any agent on the bus. In systems where each processor is attached to a different bus, each core counts only events it sees on its own bus.

Ifsomeoneknows something about this, please help me.

Thank you very much!

it is not clear on what system you measure. in a quad core system this makes sense. however you can use EXT_SNOOP.THIS_AGENT.HITM to count modified data sharing.

Hi,

My system has two 5310 processor, which is included in the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. Each 5310 has four core, and each core has one L1 data cache and one L1 instruction cache. And every two cores share a L2 cache.
