-# Monitor CPU performance statistics (perf.plugin)
-
-`perf.plugin` collects system-wide CPU performance statistics from Performance Monitoring Units (PMU) using
-the `perf_event_open()` system call.
-
-## Important Notes
-
-If you are using [our official native DEB/RPM packages](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/packaging/installer/methods/packages.md), you will need to install
-the `netdata-plugin-perf` package using your system package manager.
-
-Accessing hardware PMUs requires root permissions, so the plugin is setuid to root.
-
-Keep in mind that the number of PMUs in a system is usually quite limited and every hardware monitoring
-event for every CPU core needs a separate file descriptor to be opened.
-
-## Charts
-
-The plugin provides statistics for general hardware and software performance monitoring events:
-
-Hardware events:
-
-1.  CPU cycles
-2.  Instructions
-3.  Branch instructions
-4.  Cache operations
-5.  BUS cycles
-6.  Stalled frontend and backend cycles
-
-Software events:
-
-1.  CPU migrations
-2.  Alignment faults
-3.  Emulation faults
-
-Hardware cache events:
-
-1.  L1D cache operations
-2.  L1D prefetch cache operations
-3.  L1I cache operations
-4.  LL cache operations
-5.  DTLB cache operations
-6.  ITLB cache operations
-7.  PBU cache operations
-
-## Configuration
-
-The plugin is disabled by default because the number of PMUs is usually quite limited and it is not desired to
-allow Netdata to struggle silently for PMUs, interfering with other performance monitoring software. If you need to
-enable the perf plugin, edit /etc/netdata/netdata.conf and set:
-
-```raw
-[plugins]
-    perf = yes
-```
-
-```raw
-[plugin:perf]
-    update every = 1
-    command options = all
-```
-
-You can use the `command options` parameter to pick what data should be collected and which charts should be
-displayed. If `all` is used, all general performance monitoring counters are probed and corresponding charts
-are enabled for the available counters. You can also define a particular set of enabled charts using the
-following keywords: `cycles`, `instructions`, `branch`, `cache`, `bus`, `stalled`, `migrations`, `alignment`,
-`emulation`, `L1D`, `L1D-prefetch`, `L1I`, `LL`, `DTLB`, `ITLB`, `PBU`.
-
-## Debugging
-
-You can run the plugin by hand:
-
-```raw
-sudo /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/perf.plugin 1 all debug
-```
-
-You will get verbose output on what the plugin does.
