[PATCH 3/8] perf x86: Adding hardware events translations for intel cpus

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Wed Oct 10 2012 - 08:55:19 EST


Adding support for intel processors to display 'events' sysfs
directory (/sys/devices/cpu/events/) with hw event translations.

# ls /sys/devices/cpu/events/
branch-instructions
branch-misses
bus-cycles
cache-misses
cache-references
cpu-cycles
instructions
ref-cycles
stalled-cycles-backend
stalled-cycles-frontend
