Bus Accesses
from All Agents

The number of all
bus transactions that
were allocated in the
IO Queue by all
agents. Beware of
granularity issues
with this event. Also
Beware of different
recipes in mask bits
for Pentium 4 and
Intel Xeon
processors between
CPUID model field
value of 2 and model
value less than 2.

This is an accrued
sum of the durations
of all bus
transactions by this
processor. Divide by
“Bus Accesses from
the processor” to get
bus request latency.
Also Beware of
different recipes in
mask bits for
Pentium 4 and Intel
Xeon processors
between CPUID
model field value of 2
and model value less
than 2.
