+Select a PMU event using libpfm4 syntax (see http://perfmon2.sf.net)
+including support for event filters. For example '--pfm-events
+inst_retired:any_p:u:c=1:i'. More than one event can be passed to the
+option using the comma separator. Hardware events and generic hardware
+events cannot be mixed together. The latter must be used with the -e
+option. The -e option and this one can be mixed and matched. Events
+can be grouped using the {} notation.
