[PATCH v5 05/17] perf arm-spe: Use SPE data source for neoverse cores

From: Leo Yan
Date: Sat Jun 04 2022 - 00:29:23 EST


From: Ali Saidi <alisaidi@xxxxxxxxxx>

When synthesizing data from SPE, augment the type with source information
for Arm Neoverse cores. The field is IMPLDEF but the Neoverse cores all use
the same encoding. I can't find encoding information for any other SPE
implementations to unify their choices with Arm's thus that is left for
future work.

This change populates the mem_lvl_num for Neoverse cores as well as the
deprecated mem_lvl namespace.
