The 'perf stat' fallback for EACCES error sets the exclude_kernel
perf_event_attr and tries perf_event_open() again with it. In addition,
it also changes the name of the event to reflect that change by adding
the 'u' modifier.
But it does not take into account the '/' separator, so the event name
can end up mangled, like: (note the '/:' characters)
$ perf stat -e cpu/cpu-cycles/ kill
...
386,832 cpu/cpu-cycles/:u
Adding the code to check on the '/' separator and set the following
correct event name:
$ perf stat -e cpu/cpu-cycles/ kill
...
388,548 cpu/cpu-cycles/u

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
