Oprofile - using operf to show INST_RETIRED and l1d_replacement events in opreport

Host: Ubuntu 14.04 Opef version: 0.9.9

I would like to have two events shown in opreport so that I enter the following command to run operf:

operf ./l1thrash -e l1d_replacement:10000 -e INST_RETIRED:10000 --separate=cpu

After some seconds, the terminal shows "Profiling done"

And then I typed:

opreport

I did not specify the path because the man page indicates that the data is saved in the "oprofile_data" automatically.

However, the output did not show "l1d_replacement" and "INST_RETIRED" event.

CPU: Intel Haswell microarchitecture, speed 3.5e+06 MHz (estimated)
Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Clock cycles when not halted)with  a unit mask of 0x00 (No unit mask) count 100000
CPU_CLK_UNHALT...|

        1 1.4e-04 ld-2.19.so
        1 1.4e-04 libc-2.19.so

I believe I miss something here to get these two events appeared on the opreport.

Any idea ? Thanks

Solution

I have figured out how to have these two events in opreport while using operf.

The command is shown in the following:

operf -e l1d_replacement:xxxxxx -e INST_RETIRED:xxxxxx --separate-c ( execute your application here ) 

opreport cpu:1

You should have these two events appeared.
