Once you have the install done could you post ( somewhere ) what you see during
a single user mode boot with options -srv ?
I would like to see all the gory details.
Also, could you run "cpustat -h" ?
At the bottom, according to usr/src/uts/intel/pcbe/opteron_pcbe.c you shoud see
:
See "BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide (BKDG) For AMD Family 10h Processors"
(AMD publication 31116)
The following registers should be listed :
#define AMD_FAMILY_10h_generic_events
\
{ "PAPI_tlb_dm", "DC_dtlb_L1_miss_L2_miss", 0x7 }, \
{ "PAPI_tlb_im", "IC_itlb_L1_miss_L2_miss", 0x3 }, \
{ "PAPI_l3_dcr", "L3_read_req", 0xf1 }, \
{ "PAPI_l3_icr", "L3_read_req", 0xf2 }, \
{ "PAPI_l3_tcr", "L3_read_req", 0xf7 }, \
{ "PAPI_l3_stm", "L3_miss", 0xf4 }, \
{ "PAPI_l3_ldm", "L3_miss", 0xf3 }, \
{ "PAPI_l3_tcm", "L3_miss", 0xf7 }
You should NOT see anything like this :
r...@aequitas:/root# uname -a
SunOS aequitas 5.11 snv_139 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris
r...@aequitas:/root# cpustat -h
cpustat: cannot access performance counters - Operation not applicable
... as well as psrinfo -pv please ?
When I get my HP Proliant with the 6174 procs I'll be sure to post whatever I
see.
Dennis
