This series of patches adds some simple improvements to the way perf stat
handles PMUs that have multiple instances by:
1. Adding glob-like matching in addition to the prefix-based matching
introduced previously (patch 1).
2. Adding the ability to recover the PMU names when printing the events
separately with the --no-merge option (patch 2).
3. Restoring auto-merge for events created by prefix or glob-like match
(patch 3). Note that this still keeps the behavior that disables
auto-merging of legacy symbolic events (e.g. cycles).
V2:
- Updated the documentation to explain prefix and glob matching of PMU
names, and event auto-merging.
- Added sample output to the third patch.

Starting on v4.12 event parsing code for dynamic pmu events already
supports prefix-based matching of multiple pmus when creating dynamic
events. E.g., in a system with the following dynamic pmus:
mypmu_0
mypmu_1
mypmu_2
mypmu_4
passing mypmu/<config>/ as an event spec will result in the creation
of the event in all of the pmus. This change expands this matching
through the use of fnmatch so glob-like expressions can be used to
create events in multiple pmus. E.g., in the system described above
if a user only wants to create the event in mypmu_0 and mypmu_1,
mypmu_[01]/<config>/ can be passed.

Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies, Inc. on behalf of the Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. is a member of the Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project.
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/

64 l3cache_0_2/read-miss/
74 l3cache_0_0/read-miss/

For alias events the name is added after the event name:
$ ./perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

could we now get rid of the strncmp in here and keep the

and this one fails:
- [root@krava perf]# ./perf stat -e '*cbox/clockticks/' --no-merge -a sleep 1
event syntax error: '*cbox/clockticks/'
\___ Cannot find PMU `*cbox'. Missing kernel support?
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
despite the fact that it makes as much sense as the previous one: perf stat -e 'cbox*/clockticks/'
I'd think let's keep just the glob matching, so it's clear
you what you use wildcards for.. thoughts?

That would break existing command lines. Not a good idea.

I hoped that only you guys are using this and would rewrite your scripts ;-)

An option to keep backward compatibility and consistency would be
to wrap the pattern/string passed in *'s, that way we can just use
fnmatch and have all the examples Jiri brought up work the same.
With that in place we can actually also drop the explicit ignoring
of the uncore_ prefix since the globbing would take care of that.
Thoughts?

Prepending with * would seem dangerous, could result in false
matches. But adding it at the end should be ok.

I don't mind the strcmp as such, I wanted to get rid of the wildcard
matching without using '*' ... but as Andi said it's been out
there and it's been a while, so let's keep it
but if there's a way to make it simpler, let's go for it
thanks,

Sounds good. I have a new version ready (see sample output below).
But I wanted to ping about the other two patches before submitting.
Any feedback on those?
Thanks,
Agustín
