Currently only QEMU/KVM supports this command. The I<--enable> and I<--disable>
option combined with B<eventSpec> can be used to enabled or disable specific
performance event. B<eventSpec> is a string list of one or more events
separated by commas. Valid event names are "cmt", "mbmt", "mbml".
CMT is a PQos (Platform Qos) feature to monitor the usage of cache by
applications running on the platform.
MBM (Memory Bandwidth Monitoring) provides a way to monitor the Total
system memory bandwidth between one level of cache and another (mbmt)
and the amount of data (bytes/s) sent through the memory controller on
the socket (mbml).
