v4: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-July/msg00607.html
Reworked/reworded the series slightly. The end result is mostly the
same as the original, but with the suggested tweaks.
John Ferlan (3):
virsh: Add a forward reference to perf command from domstats --perf
virsh: Rework the perf event names into a table.
util: Move virPerfNew and virPerfFree
Qiaowei Ren (5):
perf: rename qemuDomainGetStatsPerfRdt()

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH v5 7/8] perf: Adjust the perf initialization
From: Qiaowei Ren <qiaowei.ren(a)intel.com>
Introduce a static attr table and refactor virPerfEventEnable() for
general purpose usage.
This patch creates a static table/matrix that converts the VIR_PERF_EVENT_*
events into their respective "attr.type" and "attr.config" so that
virPerfEventEnable doesn't have the switch the calling function passes
by value the 'type'.

Hi John,
How about this patch series?
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH v5 0/8] perf: add more perf events support
v4: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-July/msg00607.html
Reworked/reworded the series slightly. The end result is mostly the same as the
original, but with the suggested tweaks.
John Ferlan (3):
virsh: Add a forward reference to perf command from domstats --perf
virsh: Rework the perf event names into a table.
util: Move virPerfNew and virPerfFree
Qiaowei Ren (5):
perf: rename qemuDomainGetStatsPerfRdt()
perf: Remove the switch from qemuDomainGetStatsPerf
util: Add some comment details for virPerfEventType
perf: Adjust the perf initialization
perf: add more perf events support

I made adjustments to your series, but I also made tweaks and those
needed to be OK'd/checked by someone such as you.... Go back to the v4
series and read my comment. In particular from review of patch 2 and
more specifically code flow changes w/r/t the initialization which now
mostly become patch 7.
So please go through the series, make sure it "works" as you expect and
let me know. Once that's done and 2.2 is released, I can push these. If
tweaks need to be made, then we can do so.
Thanks,
Qiaowei

John, I just checked and did some testing for new series, and it could work. So if no more
comments, I guess that you can push these. Thanks for your feedback.
