Subject: [PATCH v7 03/14] alpha/perf: add sysfs format and event attributes
Date: Thu, 05 Nov 2026 23:30:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261105-alpha-profileme-v7-3-c474e892abb0@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261105-alpha-profileme-v7-0-c474e892abb0@gmail.com>

The Alpha PMU registers with no attribute groups, so the perf tool has no
way to learn the raw config layout, and the PMU's own events can only be
named as raw hex numbers.

Describe the event field in format/event and export aliases for the four
EV67 event types. mbox-replay has no generic hardware event, and can now
be named as cpu/mbox-replay/.
