This repository contains the Auto HWPC Sensor project, which update the config file to include the proper events of containers/core for hwpc-sensor based on the cpu family

To install the Auto HWPC Sensor, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/your-username/auto-hwpc-sensor.git

To use the Auto HWPC Sensor, follow these steps:

1. install the hwpc-sensor
2. prepare your config file with all the events except the one that depends on the container/core

instead of running the hwpc-sensor with the config file, run the auto-hwpc-sensor with the config file as an argument

    hwpc-sensor --config-file <path-to-config-file>

becomes

    auto-hwpc-sensor <path-to-config-file>

• The auto-hwpc-sensor only works with the cpu family events. If the cpu events are not present in the config file, the auto-hwpc-sensor will not work.
• the auto-hwpc-sensor only works with the config-file and not with the arguments passed to the hwpc-sensor command.

Contributions are welcome! If you would like to contribute to the Auto HWPC Sensor project.

To add a new cpu family, follow these steps:

1. add the entry in the file cpu_events.json with the cpu family as the key and the events as the value
2. make sure the the cpu family is in ** Lower case ** otherwise it won't work
3. the events should be the same format as the events present in the lbpfm4
