To simplify creation of events accross multiple instances of the same type of PMU stat supports two methods for creating multiple events from a single event specification: 1. A prefix or glob can be used in the PMU name. 2. Aliases, which are listed immediately after the Kernel PMU events by perf list, are used. When the --no-merge option is passed and these events are displayed individually the PMU name is lost and it's not possible to see which count corresponds to which pmu: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 67 l3cache/read-miss/ 67 l3cache/read-miss/ 63 l3cache/read-miss/ 60 l3cache/read-miss/ 0.001675706 seconds time elapsed $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 12 l3cache_read_miss 17 l3cache_read_miss 10 l3cache_read_miss 8 l3cache_read_miss 0.001661305 seconds time elapsed This change adds the original pmu name to the event. For dynamic pmu events the pmu name is restored in the event name: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 63 l3cache_0_3/read-miss/ 74 l3cache_0_1/read-miss/ 64 l3cache_0_2/read-miss/ 74 l3cache_0_0/read-miss/ 0.001675706 seconds time elapsed For alias events the name is added after the event name: $ perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_3] 12 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_1] 10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_2] 17 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_0] 0.001661305 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Agustin Vega-Frias <agustinv@codeaurora.org> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Timur Tabi <timur@codeaurora.org> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Change-Id: I8056b9eda74bda33e95065056167ad96e97cb1fb Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1520345084-42646-3-git-send-email-agustinv@codeaurora.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
