perf shell completion: Restrict completion of events to events
'perf list' will list libpfm4 events and metrics which aren't valid options to the '-e' option. Restrict the events gathered so that invalid ones aren't shown. Before: $ perf stat -e <tab><tab> Display all 633 possibilities? (y or n) After: $ perf stat -e <tab><tab> Display all 375 possibilities? (y or n) Committer testing: # grep -m1 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo model name : AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core Processor # Before: # . tools/perf/perf-completion.sh # perf stat -e Display all 2672 possibilities? (y or n) After: # . tools/perf/perf-completion.sh # perf stat -e Display all 2648 possibilities?
