Zusammenfassung:A number of hypervisor register fields are set to specify which processor cores are allowed to generate a number of performance events for a particular thread group. A plurality of threads for an application running in the computing environment to a plurality of thread groups are configured by a plurality of thread group fields in a plurality of control registers. A number of counter sets are allowed to count a number of thread group events originating from one of a shared resource and a shared cache are specified by a number of additional hypervisor register fields.
