Description

The debug hwpmc show command displays a list of the current Hardware Performance Monitoring Counter profiles along with the state of each one.

Parameters

[-fields <fieldname>,…​]

If you specify the -fields <fieldname>, …​ parameter, the command output also includes the specified field or fields. You can use '-fields ?' to display the fields to specify.

| [-instance ] (privilege: advanced) }

[-status <State of HWPMC Profiles>] - Current Status of HWPMC Profile (privilege: advanced)

This parameter specifies the current state of the profile. The possible states are:

  • running - Collecting hardware profiling data. The amount of time in this state is directly related to the -duration parameter used when creating the HWPMC profile.

  • processing - The hardware profiling data is being processed. This typically takes several minutes to complete, depending on the amount of data collected in the running state."

  • complete - The profile is complete.
