[opensuse-programming] using performance counters?

Hello I'm trying to optimize some assembler code for which I'm measuring runtime over a <slice of data>. Is there any easy (in C or assembler ) access to counters for pipeline stalls and cache misses available? At some point I'd also like to look at context switches, although I'm not sure how I might affect those. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-programming+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-programming+help@opensuse.org
