The man page has the details, here are some examples:

[root@emilia ~]# perf list *fault*  *:*wait*

List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
  page-faults OR faults                      [Software event]
  minor-faults                               [Software event]
  major-faults                               [Software event]
  alignment-faults                           [Software event]
  emulation-faults                           [Software event]
