Subject: [PATCH] perf, tools, pmu-events: Fix fixed counters on Intel
Date: Fri,  4 Sep 2015 11:33:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1441391602-11580-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

[This patch is on top of Sukadev's json patchkit]

The JSON event lists use a different encoding for fixed counters
than perf for instructions and cycles (ref-cycles is ok)

This lead to some common events like inst_retired.any
or cpu_clk_unhalted.thread not counting, when specified with their
JSON name.

Special case these events in the jevents conversion process.
I prefer to not touch the JSON files for this, as it's intended
that standard JSON files can be just dropped into the perf
build without changes.
