NAME

       PAPIf_hl_region_begin -

       Reads and stores hardware events at the beginning of an instrumented code region.

SYNOPSIS

Detailed Description

       Fortran Prototype:
           #include 'fpapi.h'
           PAPIf_hl_region_begin( C_STRING region, C_INT check )

       Return values:
           PAPI_OK
           PAPI_ENOTRUN -- EventSet is currently not running or could not determined.
           PAPI_ESYS -- A system or C library call failed inside PAPI, see the errno variable.
           PAPI_EMISC -- PAPI has been deactivated due to previous erros.
           PAPI_ENOMEM -- Insufficient memory.

       PAPIf_hl_region_begin reads hardware events and stores them internally at the beginning of
       an instrumented code region. If not specified via environment variable PAPI_EVENTS,
       default events are used. The first call sets all counters implicitly to zero and starts
       counting. Note that if PAPI_EVENTS is not set or cannot be interpreted, default hardware
       events are recorded.

       Example:

       export PAPI_EVENTS="PAPI_TOT_INS,PAPI_TOT_CYC"

       integer retval

       call PAPIf_hl_region_begin("computation", retval)
       if ( retval .NE. PAPI_OK ) then
            write (*,*) "PAPIf_hl_region_begin failed!"
       end if

       !do some computation here

       call PAPIf_hl_region_end("computation", retval)
       if ( retval .NE. PAPI_OK ) then
           write (*,*) "PAPIf_hl_region_end failed!"
       end if
