@@ -58,6 +58,13 @@ raw encoding of 0x1A8 can be used:
perf stat -e r1a8 -a sleep 1
perf record -e r1a8 ...
+Some special events on x86 encode additional data in the normally unused
+[32;63] bits of the raw value. This is particularly used for
+the OFFCORE_RESPONSE events on Intel Core i7. The 16bit
+mask in the OFFCORE_RESPONSE register is put into bits [32;48].
+For example the OFFCORE_RESPONSE_0.ANY_DATA.ANY_CACHE_DRAM event
+is encoded as r00007f11004301b7.

You should refer to the processor specific documentation for getting these
details. Some of them are referenced in the SEE ALSO section below.
