PAPI_strerror(3) PAPI PAPI_strerror(3)NAMEPAPI_strerror-
Returns a string describing the PAPI error code.
SYNOPSISDetailed Description
C Interface:
#include <papi.h>
char * PAPI_strerror( int errorCode );
Parameters:
code -- the error code to interpret
Return values:
*error -- a pointer to the error string.
NULL -- the input error code to PAPI_strerror() is invalid.
PAPI_strerror() returns a pointer to the error message corresponding to
the error code code. If the call fails the function returns the NULL
pointer. This function is not implemented in Fortran.
Example:
int ret;
int EventSet = PAPI_NULL;
int native = 0x0;
char error_str[PAPI_MAX_STR_LEN];
ret = PAPI_create_eventset(&EventSet);
if (ret != PAPI_OK)
{
fprintf(stderr, 'PAPI error %d: %s0, ret, PAPI_strerror(retval));
exit(1);
}
// Add Total Instructions Executed to our EventSet
ret = PAPI_add_event(EventSet, PAPI_TOT_INS);
if (ret != PAPI_OK)
{
PAPI_perror( 'PAPI_add_event');
fprintf(stderr,'PAPI_error %d: %s0, ret, error_str);
exit(1);
}
// Start counting
ret = PAPI_start(EventSet);
if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
