[PATCH v9 4/4] perf tools: add support for libpfm4

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Thu Apr 16 2020 - 02:36:56 EST

From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch links perf with the libpfm4 library if it is available
and NO_LIBPFM4 isn't passed to the build. The libpfm4 library
contains hardware event tables for all processors supported by
perf_events. It is a helper library that helps convert from a
symbolic event name to the event encoding required by the
underlying kernel interface. This library is open-source and
available from: http://perfmon2.sf.net.

With this patch, it is possible to specify full hardware events
by name. Hardware filters are also supported. Events must be
specified via the --pfm-events and not -e option. Both options
are active at the same time and it is possible to mix and match:

$ perf stat --pfm-events inst_retired:any_p:c=1:i -e cycles ....
