How to find gld_throughput and gst_throughput using nv-nsight-cu-cli

Question

Not able to get it working and documentation is bit tricky to read.
Tried below and see the outputs as n/a.

root@teja:~/Projs/CUDA/05-Profiling# nv-nsight-cu-cli --device 0 --metrics gst_throughput,gld_throughput ./run 0

The names got changed with the Nsight Compute tool.

This table helped to get the new names: https://docs.nvidia.com/nsight-compute/2019.5/NsightComputeCli/index.html#nvprof-metric-comparison

Used following cmd to get it working.

nv-nsight-cu-cli --metrics l1tex__t_bytes_pipe_lsu_mem_global_op_ld.sum.per_second,l1tex__t_sectors_pipe_lsu_mem_global_op_ld.sum,l1tex__t_bytes_pipe_lsu_mem_global_op_st.sum.per_second,l1tex__t_sectors_pipe_lsu_mem_global_op_st.sum, ./<program>
