This patchset adds support for some perf events features,
targeted at ARM64, implemented in a generic fashion.
The two main features are as follows:
- support for arch/vendor/platform pmu events directory structure
- to support this, topic subdirectory support needs to be dropped
- support for parsing standard architecture pmu events
On the back of these, the Cavium ThunderX2, ARM Cortex-A53,
and HiSilicon hip08 JSONs are relocated/added/updated.
In addition, there is a patch to drop mutli-mapfile.csv support and
also a bugfix in jevents.c for an error code value.
Differences to v1:
- Address coding issues from Jiri Olsa in adding arch std event
support (https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/6/501)
- add patch to drop topic subdirectory support
- add patch for bug fix in json_events()
- add review tags from Jiri Olsa
can't tell if those json file changes are ok, but for all the code changes:
Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx>
thanks,
