Argument .Fa pmc specified the handle a previously allocate sampling mode PMC. Argument .Fa value specifies the reload count. .Pp Sampling PMCs will interrupt the CPU after the number of hardware events specified by the reload count are seen. After the sampling interrupt is processed the underlying hardware will be reloaded with the specified count and the hardware automatically restarted by .Xr hwpmc 4 . .Pp Function .Fn pmc_set should be called on PMC in a quiescent state. .Sh RETURN VALUES .Rv -std pmc_set .Sh ERRORS A call to .Fn pmc_set may fail with the following errors: .Bl -tag -width Er .It Bq Er EINVAL The current process did not own a PMC with the specified handle. .It Bq Er EBUSY The specified PMC was already running. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr pmc 3 , .Xr hwpmc 4
