Formulas:
L1 DTLB request rate = DATA_CACHE_ACCESSES / INSTRUCTIONS_RETIRED
L1 DTLB miss rate = (DTLB_L2_HIT_ALL+DTLB_L2_MISS_ALL)/INSTRUCTIONS_RETIRED
L1 DTLB miss ratio = (DTLB_L2_HIT_ALL+DTLB_L2_MISS_ALL)/DATA_CACHE_ACCESSES
L2 DTLB request rate = (DTLB_L2_HIT_ALL+DTLB_L2_MISS_ALL)/INSTRUCTIONS_RETIRED
L2 DTLB miss rate = DTLB_L2_MISS_ALL / INSTRUCTIONS_RETIRED
L2 DTLB miss ratio = DTLB_L2_MISS_ALL / (DTLB_L2_HIT_ALL+DTLB_L2_MISS_ALL)

L1 DTLB request rate tells you how data intensive your code is
or how many data accesses you have on average per instruction.
The DTLB miss rate gives a measure how often a TLB miss occurred
per instruction. And finally L1 DTLB miss ratio tells you how many
of your memory references required caused a TLB miss on average.
NOTE: The L2 metrics are only relevant if L2 DTLB request rate is equal to the L1 DTLB miss rate!
