[PATCH v7 0/7] Event parsing fixes

From: James Clark
Date: Tue Sep 10 2024 - 11:17:05 EST


I rebased this one and made some other fixes so that I could test it,
so I thought I'd repost it here in case it's helpful. I also added a
new test.

But for the testing it all looks ok.

There is one small difference where it now hides _all_ default
<not supported> events, when previously it would only hide some
selected subset of events like "stalled-cycles-frontend". I think
this is now more consistent across platforms because, for example,
Apple M only has cycles and instructions, and the rest of the
default events would always show as <not supported> there.

Tested on Raptor Lake, Kaby Lake, Juno, N1, Ampere (with the DSU
cycles PMU) and I also faked an Apple M on Juno.

Changes since v6:
* Fix empty PMU name in perf report
* Rebase onto perf-tools-next 003265bb6f02

Changes since v5:
* Test on x86 non hybrid
* Assume 1 PMU in the test when no PMUs expose /cpus file

Changes since v4:

* Hide all <not supported> default events when not verbose
* Remove previous note about <not supported> behavior from the cover
letter and replace it with a new note about the new behavior

Changes since v3:

* Rebase onto perf-tools-next 6236ebe07
* Fix Intel TPEBS counting mode test
* Fix arm-spe build
* Add support for DT devices in stat test
* Add a new test for hybrid perf stat default arguments

Ian Rogers (5):
perf evsel: Add alternate_hw_config and use in evsel__match
perf stat: Uniquify event name improvements
perf stat: Remove evlist__add_default_attrs use strings
perf evsel x86: Make evsel__has_perf_metrics work for legacy events
perf evsel: Remove pmu_name

James Clark (2):
perf test: Make stat test work on DT devices
perf test: Add a test for default perf stat command
