On my system, perf list is very slow to print the whole events. I think there's a performance issue in SDT and uprobes event listing. I noticed this issue while running perf test on x86 but it takes long to check some CoreSight event which should be skipped quickly. Anyway, some test uses perf list to check whether the required event is available before running the test. The perf list command can take an argument to specify event class or (glob) pattern. But glob pattern is only to suppress output for unmatched ones after checking all events. In this case, specifying event class is better to reduce the number of events it checks and to avoid buggy subsystems entirely. No functional changes intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
