SYNOPSIS

papi_xml_event_info [options]

DESCRIPTION

papi_xml_event_info is a PAPI utility program that reports information about the preset and native events available on the current platform. A preset event is a PAPI defined platform independent event composed of one or more native events. A native event is an event specific to a given hardware platform. Similar information to that presented with papi_avail or papi_native_avail is presented, but in an xml format that is suitable for parsing by higher level performance tools.
For each event, an index, a name, a description, and a PAPI event code are provided. In addition,
extra information, like available unit masks, may also be provided for native events.

-c <index>
