The calculation formula of topdown L1 is from the document: https://documentation-service.arm.com/static/60250c7395978b529036da86?token= However, due to the wrong count of stall_slot and stall_slot_frontend in neoverse-n2, the real stall_slot and real stall_slot_frontend need to subtract cpu_cycles, so when calculating the topdownL1 metrics, stall_slot and stall_slot_frontend are corrected. Since neoverse-n2 does not yet support topdown L2, metricgroups such as Cache, TLB, Branch, InstructionsMix, and PEutilization will be added to further analysis of performance bottlenecks in the following patches.
