[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run the command "sudo likwid-perfctr -g FLOPS_DP -c 0 ./a.out"
2. a.out a serial program, moreover replacing a.out with simple command like ls 
also has the same problem.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Performance statistics is expected. Instead I get the message
=====================================================
CPU type:   Intel Core IvyBridge processor 
CPU clock:  3.39 GHz 
ERROR - [./src/strUtil.c:288] Error in parsing event string
=====================================================

What version of the product are you using?

Please provide any additional information below.

The current version does not have this group available for IvyBridge. You can 
check which groups are available  on the architecture you are using it with  
likwid-perfctr -a .  The Flop events used to be inaccurate on SandyBridge and 
Intel removed their documentation on IvyBridge.  Now they are back. I will add 
those groups to IvyBridge.  Still I am not sure if they only fixed this issue 
on IvyBridge-EP or on all newer IvyBridge revisions.

Same issue still exists for Haswell.

"sudo likwid-perfctr -g FLOPS_SP -c 0 ./a.out" does not work.
