Re: [PATCH] perf vendor events: Make the power8/power9 event files valid JSON

[Subho Banerjee]

Hi Arnaldo,
I am uncertain which commit you are working on. 

The command that you sent fails on the latest commit of the master branch (af42d3466bdc8f39806b26f593604fdc54140bcb) on kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git.

Is there a more up to date version of the perf tools that I should be looking at instead of what is in the kernel repo?
