So the page says — and yes, this is exactly what it says — papi_native_avail is a PAPI utility program that reports information about the events available on the current platform in an XML format.

It will attempt to create an EventSet with each event in it, which can be slow. Like, highkey slow, so maybe don’t be shocked if it takes a minute. 😭

💅 Options 💅

  • -h — print help message. Classic, iconic, helpful.
  • -p — print only preset events.
  • -n — print only native events.
  • -c COMPONENT — print only events from component number COMPONENT; event1, event2, ... — print only events that can be created in the same event set with the events event1, event2, etc.

🦋 Bugs 🦋

There are no known bugs in this utility. No cap. If you find a bug, it should be reported to the PAPI Mailing List at ptools-perfapi@icl.utk.edu.

Source/version check, bestie: Version 7.2.0.0, dated Mon Nov 3 2025, from the PAPI manual — slay, bye, and have fun with your XML 💅✨
