🎀 papi_mem_info(1) 🎀

so bestie, this is a page from the PAPI manual set, and honestly it's a little cutie pie. let's get into it 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

papi_mem_info — the papi_mem_info utility. that's it, that's the vibe 🫶

also, just so we're keeping receipts: file papi_mem_info.c 📄 (yes, that's literally in the page, iykyk)

🌸 NAME (again, because she said it twice 💖) 🌸

papi_mem_info — gives you all the tea on the memory architecture of the current processor. like, the processor you're literally on right now. no cap. 🦋

⭐ Synopsis ⭐

okay so — there is literally nothing under here in the original. no synopsis lines, no flags, nada. an empty section, and we respect her for it 🙈 (main character energy is knowing when to say nothing ✨)

💜 Description 💜

papi_mem_info is a PAPI utility program, and her whole personality is receipts about your caches 🔥

she reports information about the cache memory architecture of the current processor, including:

• the number of caches 👑
• the types of caches 💅
• the sizes of caches 🎀
• the associativities of instruction and data caches 🌈

and bestie, she doesn't stop at caches — she also spills on Translation Lookaside Buffers (TLBs), same deal: number, types, sizes, associativities. iconic. she ate. 💖

💀 Options 💀

the whole options moment, in one sentence:

• none — This utility has no command line options. zero. zilch. not a single flag. you just run her and she tells you about your memory architecture, periodt. 🧚

🍓 Bugs 🍓

There are no known bugs in this utility — she's lowkey flawless, ngl ✨

but if you do find a bug? don't suffer in silence, bestie 😭 report it to the PAPI Mailing List at ptools-perfapi@icl.utk.edu — they will absolutely handle it 🫶

ok that's the whole page, you're caught up, go run her and get your cache lore 💅🦋
