EXCLUDING COUNTS ON SOFTWARE THREADS IN A STATE

摘要

The present disclosure provides a method, computer program product, and system for compensating for event counts for a thread occurring during targeted states on the thread. In example embodiments, the state is a spin loop state and instructions completed during the spin loop are eliminated from a performance report and are presented in the absence of the spin loop. In another embodiment, the event counts are interrupt counts eliminated during the spin loop.

主权项

1. A method for factoring out event counts for a routine in a thread state targeted for elimination of event counts comprising:
accumulating events counts as a per thread base time; and attributing the per thread base time to a routine executing instructions on a thread to form an accumulated per thread base time for the routine wherein the accumulated per thread base time is only for executing instructions by the routine outside of a thread state targeted for elimination of event counts.
