[PATCH V8 3/4] perf tools: Add support to new style format of kernel PMU event

From: kan . liang
Date: Tue Oct 07 2014 - 11:17:58 EST


From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxx>

Add new rules for kernel PMU event.

Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as "a-b" and
"a".

event_pmu:
PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT sep_dc
|
PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE '-' PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF sep_dc

PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT token is for
cycles-ct/cycles-t/mem-loads/mem-stores.
The prefix cycles is mixed up with cpu-cycles.
loads and stores are mixed up with cache event
So they have to be hardcode in lex.

PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE and PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF tokens are for other PMU
events.
The lex looks generic identifier up in the table and return the matched
token. If there is no match, generic PE_NAME token will be return.

Using the rules, kernel PMU event could use new style format without //

so you can use

perf record -e mem-loads ...

instead of

perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/
