/// A cache event.
///
/// A cache event has three identifying characteristics:
///
/// - which cache to observe ([`which`])
///
/// - what sort of request it's handling ([`operation`])
///
/// - whether we want to count all cache accesses, or just misses ([`result`]).
///
/// For example, to measure the L1 data cache's miss rate:
///
/// ```
/// # use perf_event::{Builder, Group};
/// # use perf_event::events::{Cache, CacheOp, CacheResult, Hardware, WhichCache};
/// # fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
/// // A `Cache` value representing L1 data cache read accesses.
/// const ACCESS: Cache = Cache {
///     which: WhichCache::L1D,
///     operation: CacheOp::READ,
///     result: CacheResult::ACCESS,
/// };
///
/// // A `Cache` value representing L1 data cache read misses.
/// const MISS: Cache = Cache {
///     result: CacheResult::MISS,
///     ..ACCESS
/// };
///
/// // Construct a `Group` containing the two new counters, from which we
/// // can get counts over matching periods of time.
/// let mut group = Group::new()?;
/// let access_counter = group.add(&Builder::new(ACCESS))?;
/// let miss_counter = group.add(&Builder::new(MISS))?;
/// # Ok(()) }
/// ```
