Performance Monitor Unit11.1 About the PMUThe processor includes logic to gather various statistics on the operation of the processor andmemory system during runtime, based on PMUv2 architecture. These events provide usefulinformation about the behavior of the processor that you can use when debugging or profilingcode.The processor PMU provides six counters. Each counter can count any of the events availablein the processor. The absolute counts recorded might vary because of pipeline effects. This hasnegligible effect except in cases where the counters are enabled for a very short time.<strong>ARM</strong> DDI 0438I Copyright © 2011-2013 <strong>ARM</strong>.
