Sets Performance Monitor programmation for the calling thread.
Performance Monitor APIs Library (libpmapi.a)
#include <pmapi.h>
int pm_set_program_mythread ( *prog)
pm_prog_t *prog;
The pm_set_program_mythread subroutine sets the Performance Monitor programmation for the calling kernel thread. The setting includes the events to be counted, and a mode in which to count. The events to count are in a list of event identifiers. The identifiers must be selected from the lists returned by the pm_init subroutine.
The counting mode includes User Mode and/or Kernel Mode, and the Initial Counting State. The defaults are set to Off for User Mode and Kernel Mode, and the initial default state is set to delay counting until the pm_start_mythread subroutine is called.
If the list includes an event which can be used with a threshold (as indicated by the pm_init subroutine), a threshold value can also be specified.
