[PATCH v4 12/25] perf parse-events: Support event inside hybrid pmu

From: Jin Yao
Date: Fri Apr 16 2021 - 10:07:28 EST


On hybrid platform, user may want to enable events on one pmu.

Following syntax are supported:

cpu_core/<event>/
cpu_atom/<event>/

But the syntax doesn't work for cache event.

Before:

# perf stat -e cpu_core/LLC-loads/ -a -- sleep 1
event syntax error: 'cpu_core/LLC-loads/'
\___ unknown term 'LLC-loads' for pmu 'cpu_core'

Cache events are a bit complex. We can't create aliases for them.
We use another solution. For example, if we use "cpu_core/LLC-loads/",
in parse_events_add_pmu(), term->config is "LLC-loads".

Then we create a new parser to scan "LLC-loads". The
parse_events_add_cache() would be called during parsing.
The parse_state->hybrid_pmu_name is used to identify the pmu
where the event should be enabled on.

After:

# perf stat -e cpu_core/LLC-loads/ -a -- sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

24,593 cpu_core/LLC-loads/

1.003911601 seconds time elapsed

If the user sets the config name, we will not uniquify hybrid
event name.

# perf stat -e cpu_core/r3c/ -a -- sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

5,072,048 cpu_core/r3c/

1.001989415 seconds time elapsed

# perf stat -e cpu_core/r3c,name=EVENT/ -a -- sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

6,819,847 EVENT

1.001795630 seconds time elapsed
