I like it, but...

[acme@felicio ~]$ perf stat -e {cycles,cache-misses} ls
cache-misses: No such file or directory
Terminated
[acme@felicio ~]$ perf stat -e \{cycles,cache-misses\} ls
invalid or unsupported event: '{cycles,cache-misses}'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

but:

[acme@felicio ~]$ perf stat -e [cycles,instructions] ls
perf stat -e [cycles,instructions] ls
invalid or unsupported event: '[cycles,instructions]'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

[acme@felicio ~]$ perf stat -e [cycles,cache-misses]:u ls
invalid or unsupported event: '[cycles,cache-misses]:u'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

And:

[acme@felicio ~]$ perf stat -e (cycles,cache-misses) ls
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
[acme@felicio ~]$
