This needs to be documented in some manpage.

Hi Andi,

As I see, today the man page does not mention the matching from the alias events declared in the jsons.

The perf list command shows these aliases, so I am not sure how useful that info is adding to the man page.

What the man page does mention is the glob matching on the PMU device name - like how "imc" can match PMU device "uncore_imc_0", but I'm not changing around this.

Thanks,
John
