Hello.

I'm trying to change rdpmc test in perf_event_tests[1] to use libperf, but libperf doesn't have enough interfaces.
Does anyone plan to implement any of these libperf features?

- Interfaces that can run ioctl (PERF_EVENT_IOC_RESET) from userland
- Interfaces that can run fcntl (SIGIO) from userland

Thanks.
