After about one year of development, We are happy to announce the newest version of LIKWID.

The features of LIKWID 4.0.0:

  • Support for Intel Broadwell
  • Uncore support for all Uncore-aware architectures
    • Nehalem (EX)
    • Westmere (EX)
    • SandyBridge EP
    • IvyBridge EP
    • Haswell EP
  • Measure multiple event sets in a round-robin fashion (no multiplexing!)
  • Event options to filter the counter increments
  • Whole LIKWID functionality is exposed as API for C/C++ and Lua
  • New functions in the Marker API to switch event sets and get intermediate results
  • Topology code relies on hwloc. CPUID is still included but only as fallback
  • Most LIKWID applications are written in Lua (only exception likwid-bench)
  • Monitoring daemon likwid-agent with multiple output backends
  • More performance groups
