+Description: Read-only. Attribute group to describe the magic bits
+ that go into perf_event_attr.config for a particular pmu.
+ (See ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-format).
+
+ Each attribute under this group defines a bit range of the
+ perf_event_attr.config. All supported attributes are listed
+ below::
+
+ counter_info_version = "config:16-23"
+ length = "config:24-31"
+ partition_id = "config:32-63"
+ request = "config:0-31"
+ sibling_part_id = "config:32-63"
+ hw_chip_id = "config:32-63"
+ offset = "config:32-63"
+ phys_processor_idx = "config:32-63"
+ secondary_index = "config:0-15"
+ starting_index = "config:32-63"
+
+ For example::
+
+ processor_core_utilization_instructions_completed = "request=0x94,
+ phys_processor_idx=?,counter_info_version=0x8,
+ length=8,offset=0x18"
+
+ In this event, '?' after phys_processor_idx specifies this value
+ this value will be provided by user while running this event.
