Subject[RFC] perf x86 intel: Question about pebs_data_source data
hi,
I was checking with SDM (September 2015) and I'd like if you
guys could help me with understanding of following array elements

I'm reffering to Table 18-19. Data Source Encoding for Load Latency Record

- element 5
SDM says:

05H L3 HIT. Local or Remote home requests that hit the L3 cache and was
serviced by another processor core with a cross core snoop where no modified
copies were found. (clean).

and we have L3 SNOOP MISS:
OP_LH | P(LVL, L3) | P(SNOOP, MISS), /* 0x05: L3 hit, snoop miss */

while the SDM indicates HIT

- element 6
SDM says:

L3 HIT. Local or Remote home requests that hit the L3 cache and was serviced
by another processor core with a cross core snoop where modified copies were
found. (HITM).

and we have L3 SNOOP HIT:
OP_LH | P(LVL, L3) | P(SNOOP, HIT), /* 0x06: L3 hit, snoop hit */

while the SDM indicates HITM

I'm probably misunderstanding SDM (wouldn't be the first time) what do I miss?

thanks for comments,
jirka
