-Subject: [PATCH] Allow ppc64 events to be specified with or without _GRP<n>
- suffix
-
-All events for IBM PowerPC server processors (except CYCLES) have
-a _GRP<n> suffix. This is because the legacy opcontrol profiler
-can only profile events in the same group (i.e., having the same
-_GRP<n> suffix). But operf has no such restriction because it
-can multiplex events; thus, so we should allow the user to pass
-event names without the _GRP<n> suffix.
