 This command displays the symbolic event types which can be selected in the
 various perf commands with the -e option.
 
+EVENT MODIFIERS
+---------------
+
+Events can optionally have a modifer by appending a colon and one or
+more modifiers.  Modifiers allow the user to restrict when events are
+counted with 'u' for user-space, 'k' for kernel, 'h' for hypervisor.
+
+The 'p' modifier can be used for specifying how precise the instruction
+address should be. The 'p' modifier is currently only implemented for
+Intel PEBS and can be specified multiple times:
+  0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid
+  1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid
+  2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid
+  3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid
+
+The PEBS implementation now supports up to 2.
+
 RAW HARDWARE EVENT DESCRIPTOR
 -----------------------------
 Even when an event is not available in a symbolic form within perf right now,
