Only 14 RAPI events are available on Xeon Phi. Why so few?

121 Views Asked by At

I'm trying to use RAPI to monitor the performance of my Xeon Phi code. I just compiled and installed a native version of RAPI follwoing the documentation. And the following list is what I get when I execute "rapi_avail" on my Xeon Phi which shall display all available events. Surprisingly, only 14 are available.

Is this correct? Only 14 are available on Xeon Phi?

I shall use the "papi_native_avail" to get the available native events which reported 140 native events.
