L3 cache counter not available in Oprofile

Hello,

Using Oprofile-1.0.0 on my Opteron 6274 (15h), there is no stat for L3 cache. Technically Magny core products has L3 cache.

Please see the output of ophelp

[root@tiger exe]# ophelp

oprofile: available events for CPU type "AMD64 family15h"

See BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide for AMD Family 15h Processors

For architectures using unit masks, you may be able to specify

unit masks by name.  See 'operf' or 'ocount' man page for more details.
