      5Description:
      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
     15			attr1 = 'config:0-23'
     16			attr2 = 'config:0-7'
     17			attr3 = 'config:12-35'
     18
     19		Example: 'config1:1,6-10,44'
     20		Defines contents of attribute that occupies bits 1,6-10,44 of
     21		perf_event_attr::config1.
