From: Ingo Molnar Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 01:55:40 +0000 (+0200) Subject: perf tools: Accept case-insensitive symbolic event variants X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b908debd4eef91471016138569f7a9e292be682e;p=linux-beck.git perf tools: Accept case-insensitive symbolic event variants We currently fail on something like '-e CPU-migrations', with: invalid or unsupported event: 'CPU-migrations' While 'CPU-migrations' is how we actually print out the event in the default perf stat output: Performance counter stats for 'true': 0.202204 task-clock-msecs # 0.282 CPUs 0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec So change the matching to be case-insensitive.
