I get the following error whenever I try to run pfmon:
can't create perfmon context: Invalid argument
I'm using the current cvs version of libpfm and pfmon, although the
error occurs with libpfm-3.4 and pfmon-3.3
I've include some (hopefully) useful system data below.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
