PAPI_remove_named_event(3) PAPI PAPI_remove_named_event(3)NAMEPAPI_remove_named_event-
removes a named hardware event from a PAPI event set.
SYNOPSISDetailed Description
A hardware event can be either a PAPI Preset or a native hardware event
code. For a list of PAPI preset events, see PAPI_presets or run the
papi_avail utility in the PAPI distribution. PAPI Presets can be passed
to PAPI_query_event to see if they exist on the underlying
architecture. For a list of native events available on the current
platform, run papi_native_avail in the PAPI distribution.
C Interface:
#include <papi.h>
int PAPI_remove_event( int EventSet, int EventCode );
Parameters:
EventSet -- an integer handle for a PAPI event set as created by
PAPI_create_eventset
EventName -- a defined event such as PAPI_TOT_INS or a native
event.
Return values:
PAPI_OK Everything worked.
PAPI_EINVAL One or more of the arguments is invalid.
PAPI_ENOINIT The PAPI library has not been initialized.
PAPI_ENOEVST The EventSet specified does not exist.
PAPI_EISRUN The EventSet is currently counting events.
PAPI_ECNFLCT The underlying counter hardware can not count this
event and other events in the EventSet simultaneously.
PAPI_ENOEVNT The PAPI preset is not available on the underlying
hardware.
Example:
char EventName = 'PAPI_TOT_INS';
int EventSet = PAPI_NULL;
int ret;
// Create an empty EventSet
ret = PAPI_create_eventset(&EventSet);
if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
// Add Total Instructions Executed to our EventSet
ret = PAPI_add_named_event(EventSet, EventName);
if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
// Start counting
ret = PAPI_start(EventSet);
if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
// Stop counting, ignore values
ret = PAPI_stop(EventSet, NULL);
if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
// Remove event
ret = PAPI_remove_named_event(EventSet, EventName);
if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
