.SH NAME
PAPI_flops_rate \-
.PP
Simplified call to get Mflops/s (floating point operation rate), real and processor time\&.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.br
.PP
.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP
.PP
\fBC Interface: \fP
.RS 4
#include <\fBpapi\&.h\fP>
.br
int \fBPAPI_flops_rate\fP ( int event, float *rtime, float *ptime, long long *flpops, float *mflops );
.RE
.PP
\fBParameters:\fP
.RS 4
\fIevent\fP one of the three presets PAPI_FP_OPS, PAPI_SP_OPS or PAPI_DP_OPS
.br
\fI*rtime\fP realtime since the latest call
.br
\fI*ptime\fP process time since the latest call
.br
\fI*flpops\fP floating point operations since the latest call
.br
\fI*mflops\fP incremental (Mega) floating point operations per seconds since the latest call
.RE
.PP
\fBReturn values:\fP
.RS 4
\fIPAPI_EINVAL\fP The counters were already started by something other than \fBPAPI_flops_rate()\fP\&.
.br
\fIPAPI_ENOEVNT\fP The floating point operations event does not exist\&.
.br
\fIPAPI_ENOMEM\fP Insufficient memory to complete the operation\&.
.RE
.PP
The first call to \fBPAPI_flops_rate()\fP will initialize the PAPI interface, set up the counters to monitor the floating point operations event and start the counters\&.
.PP
Subsequent calls will read the counters and return real time, process time, floating point operations and the Mflop/s rate since the latest call to \fBPAPI_flops_rate()\fP\&.
.PP
\fBPAPI_flops_rate()\fP returns information related to theoretical floating point operations rather than simple instructions\&. It uses the floating point operations event which attempts to 'correctly' account for, e\&.g\&., FMA undercounts and FP Store overcounts\&. Note that \fBPAPI_flops_rate()\fP is thread-safe and can therefore be called by multiple threads\&.
