I don't think current perf supports an arch specific header string. It 
sounds like a new feature. I think it's a good feature.

Besides the instruction latency, we also introduce a 'block' field for 
perf mem. I'm not sure if the field applies for PowerPC. You may want to 
check it as well.

Could you please propose a patch to implement the feature? I think we 
can have a further discussion based on it.

I agree that the var2_w has different meanings among architectures. We 
should not force it to data->ins_lat.

The patch as below should fix it. Does it work for you?
