When --for-each-cgroup option is used, it fails when any of events is
not supported and exits immediately. This is not how 'perf stat'
handles unsupported events.
Let's ignore the failure and proceed with others so that the output is
similar to when BPF counters are not used:
Before:
$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters -e L1-icache-loads,L1-dcache-loads --for-each-cgroup system.slice,user.slice sleep 1
Failed to open first cgroup events
$
After it shows output similat to when --bpf-counters isn't specified:
$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters -e L1-icache-loads,L1-dcache-loads --for-each-cgroup system.slice,user.slice sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
<not supported> L1-icache-loads system.slice
29,892,418 L1-dcache-loads system.slice
<not supported> L1-icache-loads user.slice
52,497,220 L1-dcache-loads user.slice
$

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.
