For hardware events, they have pre-defined configs. The kernel
needs to know where the event comes from (e.g. from cpu_core pmu
or from cpu_atom pmu). But the perf type 'PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE'
can't carry pmu information.

So the kernel introduces a new type 'PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE_PMU'.
The new attr.config layout for PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE_PMU is:

0xDD000000AA
AA: original hardware event ID
DD: PMU type ID

PMU type ID is retrieved from sysfs. For example,

cat /sys/devices/cpu_atom/type
10

cat /sys/devices/cpu_core/type
4

When enabling a hybrid hardware event without specified pmu, such as,
'perf stat -e cycles -a', two events are created automatically. One
is for atom, the other is for core.

please move the command output two chars to the right, otherwise lines
with --- may confuse some scripts.


oh, very sorry about that. I will be careful in next version.

Thanks
Jin Yao
