Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 0/4] perf stat: Add option to aggregate data based on the cache topology

Motivation behind this feature is to aggregate the data at the LLC level
for chiplet based processors which currently do not expose the chiplet
details in sysfs cpu topology information.

For the completeness of the feature, the series adds ability to
aggregate data at any cache level. Following is the example of the
output on a dual socket Zen3 processor with 2 x 64C/128T containing 8
chiplet per socket.

$ sudo perf stat --per-cache -a -e ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote -- sleep 5

to aggregate data at various cache levels. Following is an example of
recording with aggregation at L2 level and reporting the same data with
aggregation at L3 level.

The sum of the aggregate at L2 from S0-D0-L2-ID0 to S0-D0-L2-ID7 is
equal to the value for S0-D0-L3-ID0 in perf stat report with aggregation
at L3 level since L3-ID0 contains L2-ID0 to L2-ID7 on the machine.

[New in v2]
On a kernel which does not have the cache instance ID in the sysfs, the
cache ID is set to 0. Running perf stat will give the following output
on the same system with cache instance ID hidden:

$ sudo perf stat --per-cache -a -e ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote -- sleep 5

This series makes breaking change when saving the cache details of env
for recording and reporting purpose. If there is a better way to do
this, please do let me know.

Following points were not considered when designing this RFC:

- Handling multiple cache types at same level: For example consider a
case where L1i is thread local but L1d is core-wide. The logic
currently selects the last cache instance it sees at a particular
level when iterating over the indices. This may lead to user expecting
a different result than the one perf reported.

- For the same example as above, where L1i is thread local and L1d is
core-wide, the record and report might not give consistent result as
the qsort() function used to sort cache_level_data[] when saving the
env data is unstable and might not preserve the order for the different
caches at same level. Since we consider the data for the last set of
data at the same level, the unstable sort might lead to
inconsistencies.

I'm seeking some clarification from the community for the above problems
and potential solutions for processors where all CPUs might not share
the same topology structure.

This series cleanly applies on top perf-tool branch from Arnaldo's tree

Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 3/4] perf: Extract building cache level for a CPU into separate function

build_caches() builds the complete cache topology of the system by
iterating over all CPU, building and comparing cache levels of each CPU,
keeping only the unique ones at the end.

Extract the function that build the cache levels for a single CPU into
a separate function. Expose this function to be used elsewhere in perf
too.

Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 4/4] perf: Add option for --per-cache aggregation

Processors based on chiplet architecture, such as AMD EPYC and Hygon do
not expose the chiplet details in the sysfs CPU topology information.
However, this information can be derived from the per CPU cache level
information from the sysfs.

perf stat has already supported aggregation based on topology
information using core ID, socket ID, etc. It'll be useful to aggregate
based on the cache topology to detect problems like imbalance and
cache-to-cache sharing at various cache levels.

This patch adds support for "--per-cache" option for aggregation at a
particular cache level. Also update the docs and related test. The
output will be like:

$ sudo ./perf stat --per-cache=L3 -a -e ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote -- sleep 5

Also support perf stat record and perf stat report with the ability to

stat report.

considered valid but that was not the intention. Only parse strings
of form LX or lX where x is the cache level and can range from 1 to
