Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 3/3] perf test: Avoid uncore_imc/clockticks in
 uniquification test

Hi Ian,

Cool! After applied your patch "[PATCH v2 2/3] perf evsel: Fix
uniquification when PMU given without suffix" and  "[PATCH v2 3/3]
perf test: Avoid uncore_imc/clockticks in uniquification test",
the uniquifying testing passed on both Intel hybrid and non-hybrid machine:
