Do not assume which events may have a PMU name, allowing the logic to
keep an AUX event group together.
Example:
Before:
$ perf record --no-bpf-event -c 10 -e '{intel_pt//,tlb_flush.stlb_any/aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' -- sleep 0.1
WARNING: events were regrouped to match PMUs
Cannot add AUX area sampling to a group leader
$
After:
$ perf record --no-bpf-event -c 10 -e '{intel_pt//,tlb_flush.stlb_any/aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' -- sleep 0.1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.078 MB perf.data ]
$ perf script -F-dso,+addr | grep -C5 tlb_flush.stlb_any | head -11

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.
