[PATCH V2 4/4] perf cgroup: Add fast path for cgroup switch

From: kan . liang
Date: Wed May 15 2019 - 17:04:13 EST


From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Generic visit_groups_merge() is used in cgroup context switch to sched
in cgroup events, which has high overhead especially in frequent context
switch with several events and cgroups involved. Because it feeds all
events on a given CPU to pinned/flexible_sched_in() regardless the
cgroup.

Add a fast path to only feed the specific cgroup events to
pinned/flexible_sched_in() in cgroup context switch for non-multiplexing
case.

Don't need event_filter_match() to filter cgroup and CPU in fast path.
Only pmu_filter_match() is enough.

Don't need to specially handle system-wide event for fast path. Move it
to slow path.
