Then I think you need to remove the specific evsel not the all tpebs
events.

Oh, I meant you can have the logic in utils/intel-tpebs.c but add a call
to tpebs_delete() in __run_perf_stat().  I think it'd better to keep it
in evlist__close() but we don't use evlist__open() for perf stat so it's
not symmetric. :(

Anyway, all I want to say is that tpebs APIs work on evlist level.  So I
think it's natural that they are called for the whole list, not for an
event/evsel.

I think the best way is to check target__has_cpu().

Ok, it's fine if it's checked already.  Then I thought you could just
use strrchr() but it seems you want the index of 'R' to modify the
copied string.

Is this just to find the original evsel later?  Then I think you can
compare the pointer directly instead of name.

I guess it's ok to call tpebs_set_evsel() even if it's not stopped.  It
seems you use tpebs_retire_lat->val only and it's an average so it won't
change much if you read either before or after concurrent changes.

It can be useful to the interval mode if you keep the tpebs background
process after read.
