[PATCH 3/4] perf: Use pmu_events_map table to create event aliases

Wed May 20 10:02:09 AEST 2015


At run time, (i.e when perf is starting up), locate the specific events
table for the current CPU and create event aliases for each of the events.

Use these aliases to parse user's specified perf event.
