How to get instruction count for kernel with Fermi?

Hi!
Im looking for a handy way to obtain the instruction count for a specific kernel. Decuda doesnt work with my Fermi so I need something else. Is there another (linux) tool capable of aiding me with this?

There is nvc0dis from the Nouveau project.

The Visual Profiler will tell you how many instructions were issued on some SM.

I already looked into using it. But sadly the profiler is way to inaccurate for my purpose. Im trying to retrieve the instruction count to compare it with the achieved bandwidth. You might remember my other thread where I asked about calculating an “ideal” ratio of the two values :) As for nvc0dis Im still looking for some wiki or documentation of it. Is there anything available that even explains what it does and how it works?
