   5 Description:
   6                 Attribute group to describe the magic bits that go into
   7                 perf_event_attr::config[012] for a particular pmu.
   8                 Each attribute of this group defines the 'hardware' bitmask
   9                 we want to export, so that userspace can deal with sane
  10                 name/value pairs.
  11
  12                 Userspace must be prepared for the possibility that attributes
  13                 define overlapping bit ranges. For example:
  14                         attr1 = 'config:0-23'
  15                         attr2 = 'config:0-7'
  16                         attr3 = 'config:12-35'
  17
  18                 Example: 'config1:1,6-10,44'
  19                 Defines contents of attribute that occupies bits 1,6-10,44 of
  20                 perf_event_attr::config1.
