  Description:	Generic performance monitoring events
  
  		A collection of performance monitoring events that may be
  		supported by many/most CPUs. These events can be monitored
  		using the 'perf(1)' tool.
  
  		The contents of each file would look like:
  
  			event=0xNNNN
  
  		where 'N' is a hex digit and the number '0xNNNN' shows the
  		"raw code" for the perf event identified by the file's
  		"basename".

  Description:	Per-pmu performance monitoring events specific to the running system
  
  		Each file (except for some of those with a '.' in them, '.unit'
  		and '.scale') in the 'events' directory describes a single
  		performance monitoring event supported by the <pmu>. The name
  		of the file is the name of the event.
  
  		File contents:
  
  			<term>[=<value>][,<term>[=<value>]]...
  
  		Where <term> is one of the terms listed under
  		/sys/bus/event_source/devices/<pmu>/format/ and <value> is
  		a number is base-16 format with a '0x' prefix (lowercase only).
  		If a <term> is specified alone (without an assigned value), it
  		is implied that 0x1 is assigned to that <term>.
  
  		Examples (each of these lines would be in a seperate file):
  
  			event=0x2abc
  			event=0x423,inv,cmask=0x3
  			domain=0x1,offset=0x8,starting_index=0xffff
  			domain=0x1,offset=0x8,core=?
  
  		Each of the assignments indicates a value to be assigned to a
  		particular set of bits (as defined by the format file
  		corresponding to the <term>) in the perf_event structure passed
  		to the perf_open syscall.
  
  		In the case of the last example, a value replacing "?" would
  		need to be provided by the user selecting the particular event.
  		This is referred to as "event parameterization". Event
  		parameters have the format 'param=?'.

  Contact:	Linux kernel mailing list <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>
  Description:	Perf event units
  
  		A string specifying the English plural numerical unit that <event>
  		(once multiplied by <event>.scale) represents.
  
  		Example:
  
  			Joules
  
  What: /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<pmu>/events/<event>.scale
  Date: 2014/02/24
  Contact:	Linux kernel mailing list <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>
  Description:	Perf event scaling factors
  
  		A string representing a floating point value expressed in
  		scientific notation to be multiplied by the event count
  		recieved from the kernel to match the unit specified in the
  		<event>.unit file.
  
  		Example:
  
  			2.3283064365386962890625e-10
  
  		This is provided to avoid performing floating point arithmetic
  		in the kernel.
