Hi Stefane, Everything looks great. The only issue I have is that the new event::qual:qual:qual syntax will break a lot of tools out there that do strict checking of assumed libpfm event formats....so I'm not convinced the double colon is necessary. It can adequately be parsed by just assuming that the first item is always the event specifier. My 2 cents.
