Update for this issue.

I'm investigating the kernel source.

I found that Perf for AMD seems imperfect in linux 3.0 (my machine's
linux version).

For AMD family 15h, there is a commented line as follow.
 - /* nortbridge counters not yet implemented: */  (line 541,
perf_event_amd.c )


According to my further exploration, linux 3.2 does not support it either.

Does any of you know or have the patch for it?
