+TOOL/HWMON EVENTS
+-----------------
+
+Some events don't have an associated PMU instead reading values
+available to software without perf_event_open. As these events don't
+support sampling they can only really be read by tools like perf stat.
+
+Tool events provide times and certain system parameters. Examples
+include duration_time, user_time, system_time and num_cpus_online.
+
+Hwmon events provide easy access to hwmon sysfs data typically in
+/sys/class/hwmon. This information includes temperatures, fan speeds
+and energy usage.
