It is inconsistent that "perf stat -e instructions-retired" wildcard opens on all PMUs while legacy cache events like "perf stat -e L1-dcache-load-miss" do not. A behavior introduced by hybrid is that a legacy cache event like L1-dcache-load-miss should wildcard open on all hybrid PMUs. Previously hybrid would call to is_event_supported for each PMU, a failure of which results in the event not being added. This isn't done in this case as the parser should just create perf_event_attr and the later open should fail, or the counter give "<not counted>". If this wants to be avoided then the PMU can be named with the event.

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.
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.
