Returns Performance Monitor data for the counting group to which the calling thread belongs.
Performance Monitor APIs Library (libpmapi.a)
#include <pmapi.h>
int pm_get_data_mygroup ( *pmdata)
pm_data_t *pmdata;
The pm_get_data_mygroup subroutine retrieves the current Performance Monitor data for the group to which the calling kernel thread belongs. The data is a set (one per hardware counter on the machine used) of 64-bit values. The information returned also includes the characteristics of the group, such as the number of its members, if it is a process level group, and if its counters are consistent with the sum of the counters for all of the threads in the group.
| *pmdata | Pointer to a structure to return the Performance Monitor data for the group to which the calling thread belongs. |
| 0 | No errors occurred. |
| Positive error code | Refer to the pm_error (pm_error Subroutine) subroutine to decode the error code. |
Refer to the pm_error (pm_error Subroutine) subroutine.
| /usr/include/pmapi.h | Defines standard macros, data types, and subroutines. |
