Description: Read-only. Attribute group to describe the magic bits
that go into perf_event_attr.config for a particular pmu.
(See ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-format).
Each attribute under this group defines a bit range of the
perf_event_attr.config. All supported attributes are listed
below.
counter_info_version = "config:16-23"
length = "config:24-31"
partition_id = "config:32-63"
request = "config:0-31"
sibling_part_id = "config:32-63"
hw_chip_id = "config:32-63"
offset = "config:32-63"
phys_processor_idx = "config:32-63"
secondary_index = "config:0-15"
starting_index = "config:32-63"
For example,
processor_core_utilization_instructions_completed = "request=0x94,
phys_processor_idx=?,counter_info_version=0x8,
length=8,offset=0x18"
In this event, '?' after phys_processor_idx specifies this value
this value will be provided by user while running this event.
