Description Petri Latvala 2014-11-11 11:23:16 UTC 
The performance counter values for VF part of the pipeline (IA_VERTICES_COUNT, IA_PRIMITIVES_COUNT) are always 0. Gathering of these counters should be explicitly enabled in VF_STATE.

According to the specs, the same should apply to *_INVOCATION_COUNT counters, but those come out fine.

As a workaround, INTEL_DEBUG=stats enables the gathering.
