When a group has multiple events and the leader fails it can yield errors like: $ perf stat -e '{uncore_imc/cas_count_read/},instructions' /bin/true Error: The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (uncore_imc/cas_count_read/). /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information. However, when not the group leader <not supported> is given: $ perf stat -e '{instructions,uncore_imc/cas_count_read/}' /bin/true ... 1,619,057 instructions <not supported> MiB uncore_imc/cas_count_read/ This is necessary because get_group_fd will fail if the leader fails and is the direct result of the check on line 750 of builtin-stat.c in stat_handle_error that returns COUNTER_SKIP for the latter case. This patch improves the error message to: $ perf stat -e '{uncore_imc/cas_count_read/},instructions' /bin/true Error: Invalid event (uncore_imc/cas_count_read/) in per-thread mode, enable system wide with '-a'. v2. Changed the test to use !target__has_cpu as suggested by Namhyung Kim.

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.
