[PATCH v3 01/10] tools/perf: support parsing parameterized events

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu
Date: Wed Sep 17 2014 - 14:52:31 EST


From: Cody P Schafer <cody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Enable event specification like:

pmu/event_name,param1=0x1,param2=0x4/

Assuming that

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/pmu/events/event_name

Contains something like

param2=foo,bar=1,param1=baz

Changelog[v6]:
[Jiri Olsa] If the sysfs event file specifies 'param=val', make the
usage 'hv_24x7/event,param=123/' rather than 'hv_24x7/event,val=123/'.
[Sukadev Bhattiprolu] If verbose option is set, print help message
if a required parameter is missing or invalid parameter is specified.
