RUN-TIME INSTRUMENTATION MONITORING OF PROCESSOR CHARACTERISTICS
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for monitoring processor characteristic information of a processor using run-time-instrumentation, the method comprising:
- executing an instruction stream on a processor;
detecting a run-time instrumentation sample point of the executing instruction stream on the processor; and
storing a reporting group in a run-time instrumentation program buffer based on the run-time instrumentation sample point, the reporting group including processor characteristic information associated with the processor.
