H A D | README | e9d32c1b Thu Mar 08 04:58:32 CST 2018 John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com> perf vendor events: Add support for arch standard events
For some architectures (like arm), there are architecture- defined events. Sometimes these events may be "recommended" according to the architecture standard, in that the implementer is free ignore the "recommendation" and create its custom event.
This patch adds support for parsing standard events from arch-defined JSONs, and fixing up vendor events when they have implemented these events as standard.
Support is also ensured that the vendor may implement their own custom events.
A new step is added to the pmu events parsing to fix up the vendor events with the arch-standard events.
The arch-defined JSONs must be placed in the arch root folder for preprocessing prior to tree JSON processing.
In the vendor JSON, to specify that the arch event is supported, the keyword "ArchStdEvent" should be used, like this:
[ { "ArchStdEvent": "L1D_CACHE_WR", }, ]
Matching is based on the "EventName" field in the architecture JSON.
No other JSON objects are strictly required. However, for other objects added, these take precedence over architecture defined standard events, thus supporting separate events which have the same event code.
