[PATCH 0/6][v4]: perf: Make POWER7 events available in sysfs
Make the generic and some POWER7-specific perf events available in sysfs.
These changes mainly extend similar functionality implemented in x86 to
work on POWER architecture as well.
Thanks to input from Stephane Eranian, Robert Richter, Peter Ziljstra
and Jiri Olsa.
Changelog[v4]:
[Jiri Olsa]: Document that multiple event= like terms can be specified
in the 'events' file.
[Jiri Olsa]: Remove the documentation for the 'config format' file
as it is already documented in 'Documentation/ABI/testing/'
[Jiri Olsa]: Move the ABI documentaion from 'stable/' to 'testing/'.
Changelog[v3]:
[Jiri Olsa]: No need to define EVENT_ID, PMU_EVENT_PTR() if used only
once
[Greg KH]: Document the new sysfs interfaces in Documenation/ABI
Changelog[v2]:
[Jiri Olsa] Use PMU_FORMAT_ATTR() rather than duplicating code.
