14DESCRIPTION
15-----------
16Mode is intended to provide four I/O performance metrics per each PCIe root port:
17
18- Inbound Read - I/O devices below root port read from the host memory, in MB
19
20- Inbound Write - I/O devices below root port write to the host memory, in MB
21
22- Outbound Read - CPU reads from I/O devices below root port, in MB
23
24- Outbound Write - CPU writes to I/O devices below root port, in MB
25
26OPTIONS
27-------
28<command>...::
29 Any command you can specify in a shell.
30
31list::
32 List all PCIe root ports.
33
34<ports>::
35 Select the root ports for monitoring. Comma-separated list is supported.
36
37EXAMPLES
38--------

401. List all PCIe root ports (example for 2-S platform):
41
42 $ perf iostat list
43 S0-uncore_iio_0<0000:00>
44 S1-uncore_iio_0<0000:80>
45 S0-uncore_iio_1<0000:17>
46 S1-uncore_iio_1<0000:85>
47 S0-uncore_iio_2<0000:3a>
48 S1-uncore_iio_2<0000:ae>
49 S0-uncore_iio_3<0000:5d>
50 S1-uncore_iio_3<0000:d7>
51
522. Collect metrics for all PCIe root ports:
53
54 $ perf iostat -- dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvme0n1 bs=1M oflag=direct
