As I recall, %stick and %stick_cmpr are sun-specific additions to v9: For this kind of thing, I usually go to the UltraSPARC-III manual: From www.sun.com/processors/manuals/USIIIv2.pdf: [quote] When the STICK_COMPARE.INT_DIS bit is zero (system tick compare is enabled) a nd its STICK_CMPR field matches the value in the STICK register, then the SM field in SOFTINT is set to one and a Level-14 interrupt is generated. See Section 6.7.4, “Timer State Registers: ASRs 4, 23, 24, 25” for details. [/quote] In other words, %stick is the system tick register. %stick_cmpr is its suicide count.
