Hi Ali,

I want to confirm that when we report the miss rate for detailed mode (data 
cache), should we use dcache.overall_mshr_miss_rate or dcache.overall_miss_rate?

How is the dcache.overall_mshr_miss_rate calculated? Is it # mshr misses/# 
overall accesses? If I understand correctly, using dcache.overall_miss_rate 
should get similar result as atomic mode.

Thanks!

Best regards
Fangfei

Hi Si,



I imagine you're sampling multiple times? THe cpu.data vs switch_cpu.data is 
because the transition between CPU models when you restored from a checkpoint. 
I imagine the second switch_cpus is a another sample. Note you probably want 
overall_mshr_miss_rate.



Thanks,

Ali

Hi all,

I am running bbench on arm detailed mode. But I have some trouble of 
understanding the stat results. I found that there are five different values in 
the stat for the dcache.overall_miss_rate.

system.cpu.dcache.overall_miss_rate::switch_cpus.data     0.163675              
         # miss rate for overall accesses
system.cpu.dcache.overall_miss_rate::cpu.data     0.333333                      
 # miss rate for overall accesses
system.cpu.dcache.overall_miss_rate::total     0.163678                       # 
miss rate for overall accesses
system.cpu.dcache.overall_miss_rate::switch_cpus.data     0.065822              
         # miss rate for overall accesses
system.cpu.dcache.overall_miss_rate::total     0.065822                       # 
miss rate for overall accesses

What is the difference between them? Which one should I refer to as the overall 
miss rate? Why there are two entirely different total dcache.overall_miss_rate?

Thanks,
Si
