    perf: make perf stat print user provided full event names · f0c55bcf
    Stephane Eranian 提交于
    This patch changes the way perf stat prints event names at the end of a
    run. Until now, it was trying to reconstruct the event name from its
    encoding. The problem is that it would only print generic events without
    their modifiers (u, k, pp).
    
    This patch saves the event name as passed by the user in the evsel
    struct and uses it to print the final event name.
    
    This would also work in case perf is linked with a library (such as
    libpfm4) which provides full PMU event tables.
