Nice patch!

I noticed a couple of small details:

Nit: I think these fields have all similar lengths so they should be
vertically aligned, something like:

EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-cores, rapl_cores, "event=0x01");
EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-pkg , rapl_pkg , "event=0x02");
EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-ram , rapl_ram , "event=0x03");
EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-gfx , rapl_gfx , "event=0x04");

EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-cores.unit, rapl_cores_unit, "Joules");
EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-pkg.unit , rapl_pkg_unit , "Joules");
EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-ram.unit , rapl_ram_unit , "Joules");
EVENT_ATTR_STR(energy-gfx.unit , rapl_gfx_unit , "Joules");

Also, instead of 'gfx', shouldn't it be 'gpu' throughout the patch?

Thanks,

Ingo
