Trying to find out the path uops are delivered to IDQ (Sandy Bridge-E)

Hi,

I am currently experimenting with some small asm sequences and investigating the performance event counters. I have a small loop consisting of a (add,add,mov,sub,jnb) sequence, being repeated x number of times.

My initial guess was that I would be able to see the number of uops sent to the instruction dispatch queue (IDQ), could be observed by looking at the decoded icache (IDQ:DSB_UOPS) event. However, the results were not as I expected:

IDQ:DSB_UOPS 15252

IDQ:MITE_UOPS 4692

UOPS_RETIRED 4000024538

PAPI_TOT_CYC 1000237807

Can anyone please point out where these uops are sent to the backend from, and which event I should check to observe that?

Thanks,

Yaman

Hi yamancak,

In regards your question, it is better to post at Intel® Developer Zone, they are in charge of the software and processor firmware.
