Starts Performance Monitor counting for the calling thread.
Performance Monitor APIs Library (libpmapi.a)
#include <pmapi.h> int pm_start_mythread()
The pm_start_mythread subroutine starts Performance Monitor counting for the calling kernel thread. Counting is effective immediately unless the thread is in a group, and that group's counting is not currently set to On. The counting state of a thread in a group is obtained by ANDing the thread counting state with the group state.
