Hi Ilkaa,
For these topdown metrics, as long as they are the same as the standard
one you can remove anything that is duplicated. This might make it
easier to make changes across all the topdown metrics in the future and
have consistent descriptions across CPUs. For example this backend_bound
one could look like this:
{
"ArchStdEvent": "backend_bound",
}
This assumes that you have the slots sysfs file available, otherwise you
could leave only the formula in.
We also decided to make the units for the topdown metrics "percent of
slots" as we thought more specificity in the units was clearer.
Thanks
James
