Some useful extensions for the papi pmda to track: - exposure of non-PRESET counters - exposure of uncore counters - exposure of numa-related counters - ability to turn on/off multiplexing
also: - pmdacache based assignment of counter-name -> pmids - dynamic papi_desc() rather than metrictab[]
Also worth considering adding a papi.available.version metric, detailing the major and minor papi version
Another possibility: adding a %ghost .NeedInstall file to the pcp-pmda-papi subrpm, so that the pmda is activated to pmcd.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle. Changing version to '22'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora22
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
The PAPI PMDA seems to have no users and is being phased out upstream in favour off the perfevent PMDA. We do not plan any further development efforts on it in Fedora either.
