perf: make perf stat print user provided full event names
This patch changes the way perf stat prints event names at the end of a run. Until now, it was trying to reconstruct the event name from its encoding. The problem is that it would only print generic events without their modifiers (u, k, pp). This patch saves the event name as passed by the user in the evsel struct and uses it to print the final event name. This would also work in case perf is linked with a library (such as libpfm4) which provides full PMU event tables. $ perf stat -e cycles:u,cycles:k date Wed Feb 16 14:58:52 CET 2011 Performance counter stats for 'date': 568600 cycles:u 2779715 cycles:k 0.001908182 seconds time elapsed Cc: Arun Sharma <arun@sharma-home.net> Cc: David S.
