[PATCH v6 09/26] perf parse-events: Create two hybrid cache events

From: Jin Yao
Date: Tue Apr 27 2021 - 03:03:41 EST


For cache events, they have pre-defined configs. The kernel needs
to know where the cache event comes from (e.g. from cpu_core pmu
or from cpu_atom pmu). But the perf type PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE
can't carry pmu information.

Now the type PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE is extended to be PMU aware type.
The PMU type ID is stored at attr.config[63:32].

When enabling a hybrid cache event without specified pmu, such as,
'perf stat -e LLC-loads -a', two events are created
automatically. One is for atom, the other is for core.

# perf stat -e LLC-loads -a -vv -- sleep 1

v5 - v6:
- No change.

v4:
- Use PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE (v3 uses PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE_PMU)
- Define 'ret' variable for return value.

v3:
- Raw event creation is moved to parse-events-hybrid.c.
