Hi, Let me some questions about specification of L1 miss performance counter ofBroadwell-EP and Cascadelake-SP.
I want to compare L1 instruction Hit/Miss counts of Broadwell-EP and Cascadelake-SP by collecting performance counters. Icache.misses event Broadwell supported looks unsupported in Cascadelake-SP, and following events are added in Cascadelake-SP.
- ICACHE_64B.IFTAG_MISS
- FRONTEND_RETIRED.L1I_MISS
Questions.
1. Which event is the same as Icache.misses?
2. Please let me know the difference between the use of ICACHE_64B.IFTAG_MISS and FRONTEND_RETIRED.L1I_MISS.
3. Is ICACHE_16B.IFDATA_STALL equal to L1I Cache miss penalty？
4. Is the Icache.misses (Event 0x80, UMASK 0x02) event collectable in Cascadelake-SP?
