However, in read_counter we assume that we opened events for the product of threads and CPUs described in the evsel's cpu_map. Thus, if an evsel has a cpu_map with more than one entry, we will attempt to access FDs that we didn't open. This could result in a number of problems (e.g. blocking while reading from STDIN if the fd memory happened to be initialised to zero). This is problematic for systems were a logical CPU PMU covers some arbitrary subset of CPUs. The cpu_map of any evsel for that PMU will be initialised based on the cpumask exposed through sysfs, even if the user requests per-thread events.
