Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms for providing performance monitoring information. In an embodiment, a performance monitor circuit receives a communication which indicates a format comprising multiple fields which are each to store a respective count of monitored events. A programming of the performance monitor circuit, based on the communication, designates first bits and second bits of the register to provide, respectively, a first first field and a second field according to the format. Performance monitoring subsequent to the programming successively tallies a first count of first events which occur during a first period of time, and a second count of second events which occur during a second period of time. In another embodiment, performance monitoring results in the register concurrently storing both the first count and the second count.
