could we now get rid of the strncmp in here and keep the
glob matching only? I find it confusing now that following
commands give me same results:

        - [root@krava perf]# ./perf stat -e 'cbox/clockticks/' --no-merge -a 
sleep 1

         Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

           <not supported>      uncore_cbox_1/clockticks/                       
            
        281,474,957,674,239      uncore_cbox_0/clockticks/                      
             

               1.000958335 seconds time elapsed

        - [root@krava perf]# ./perf stat -e '*cbox*/clockticks/' --no-merge -a 
sleep 1

         Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

           <not supported>      uncore_cbox_1/clockticks/                       
            
                 5,427,337      uncore_cbox_0/clockticks/                       
            

               1.000962724 seconds time elapsed

        - [root@krava perf]# ./perf stat -e 'cbox*/clockticks/' --no-merge -a 
sleep 1

         Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

           <not supported>      uncore_cbox_1/clockticks/

               1.001026179 seconds time elapsed

and this one fails:

        - [root@krava perf]# ./perf stat -e '*cbox/clockticks/' --no-merge -a 
sleep 1
        event syntax error: '*cbox/clockticks/'
                             \___ Cannot find PMU `*cbox'. Missing kernel 
support?
        Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

         Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

            -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list 
available events


despite the fact that it makes as much sense as the previous one: perf stat -e 
'cbox*/clockticks/'


I'd think let's keep just the glob matching, so it's clear
you what you use wildcards for.. thoughts?

thanks,
