Reports at the Link Transaction Level
The following metric-based reports are displayed at the Link Transaction level:
Link Transaction Performance: This report table groups the Link Transactions by TLP
Type and displays Minimum/Average/Maximum data for Number Of Packets, Response
Time and Payload Bytes metrics.
Memory Writes: This report table includes only the Link Transactions that present
Memory Write Requests. Memory Writes are the only (posted) requests that don't get
promoted to the Split transaction level, therefore their performance should be viewed at
the Link transaction level. The table groups Memory Writes by the combination of
Requester ID and Traffic Class and displays Minimum/Average/Maximum data for
Response Time, Payload and Throughput metrics.
Following features apply to all of the report tables described above for the Split
Transaction and Link Transaction levels:
• Each report row for the defined tables contains the total number of units in this
group for the CATC Trace (total number of units for Split Transaction performance,
Read Requests performance, Memory Writes, and so on).
• In many cases, the Maximum and Minimum values in the report tables are
navigable. By clicking table cells, you reposition the corresponding CATC Trace
view to the Split or Link Transaction that has yielded this maximum or minimum
value. This can help you to find specific units in the CATC Trace, such as
transactions that produced spikes in Response Time or Throughput.
