Description: I have extended Cachegrind to include L2 Cache Inclusion & TLB Measuring. The main goal of this talk is to present and explain how these two extensions work; why they might be useful, what one can do with them, how did I test them, etc. (see full description for the points to be covered)

Intended Audience: Valgrind core developers and Cachegrind users

• Overview of Cachegrind and its limitations
  • Functionality added by my extensions

And then, for both TLB measuring and L2 cache inclusion the following points will be covered:

• Usage
• Example use
• Available options
• How does the extension interact with the original code
• How to extend it
• Validity of results
• Introduced slowdown
