Using the --dcache-data-profile Option to Produce a Data Summary
To get a Data Summary output, you need to use the --dcache-data-profile option.
The dcache measurement does not produce the Data Summary by default.
The Data Summary shows a histogram of data accessed by location. Each sample records
the data address that is accessed. If a data address belongs to a global variable, the
sample is attributed to the global variable. Otherwise, the data address is mapped to
a process region such as text, data, heap, stack, and so forth.
If a data address cannot be determined to belong to a global variable or a process region,
it is shown as an unknown sample. The data address is appended to the symbol name.
An example entry might be *unknown_0x9fffffffbf789378*, where the data
address 0x9fffffffbf789378 was a data cache miss, but it was not assigned to any
global variable or process region.
An example of Data Summary output is shown below:
