perf stat: Print out miss/hit ratio for L1 data-cache events
Print out this kind of l1-dcache-misses percentage: Performance counter stats for './bw_tcp localhost': 29,956,262,201 cycles # 3.002 GHz (scaled from 85.14%) 8,255,209,558 stalled-cycles # 27.56% of all cycles are idle (scaled from 86.56%) 1,206,130,308 l1-dcache-misses # 40.49% of all L1-dcache hits (scaled from 86.30%) 2,978,756,779 l1-dcache-refs # 298.512 M/sec (scaled from 70.02%) 8,861,956,159 instructions # 0.30 insns per cycle # 0.93 stalled cycles per insn (scaled from 84.27%) 1,644,306,068 branches # 164.782 M/sec (scaled from 86.43%) 74,778,443 branch-misses # 4.55% of all branches (scaled from 70.69%) 9978.695711 task-clock # 0.693 CPUs utilized 14.404347983 seconds time elapsed And color the result depending on the severity of cache-trashing.
