HI Stefane,

Couldn't all this be solved by having opcontrol/ophelp use the pfmlib
event tables directory and ignoring everything in the events directory
of oprofile?

This would simplify things. OProfile does allow user to look at the events of architectures other than the one that the user is currently on. libpfm doesn't currently support that type of operation. libpfm only provides information for the processor it is currently on. The constraints on setting up the configuration are dependent on the actual environment, but would it be possible for libpfm to provide event name and mask information without probing which processor the code is running on?
