Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] perf tool: Enable cpu list for hybrid

The perf-record and perf-stat have supported the option '-C/--cpus'
to count or collect only on the list of CPUs provided. This option
needs to be supported for hybrid as well.

v4:
---
Rename evlist__use_cpu_list to evlist__fix_hybrid_cpus
Add comments to evlist__fix_hybrid_cpus.

v3:
---
Rebase to latest perf/core branch.

v2:
---
Automatically map to hybrid pmu.

For example,

If cpu0-7 are 'cpu_core' and cpu9-11 are 'cpu_atom',

# perf stat -e cycles -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,11':

1,914,704 cpu_core/cycles/
2,036,983 cpu_atom/cycles/

1.005815641 seconds time elapsed

It automatically selects cpu0 for cpu_core/cycles/, selects cpu11 for
cpu_atom/cycles/, also with some warnings output.

Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] perf tools: Create hybrid flag in target

User may count or collect only on a cpu list via '-C/--cpus' option.
Previously cpus for evsel was retrieved from pmu sysfs. But if the
target cpu list is defined, the retrieved cpus are not kept and the
target cpu list is used instead.

But for hybrid system, we can't directly use target cpu list. The
cpu list may not available on hybrid pmu (e.g. cpu_core or cpu_atom).
So we should not set 'has_user_cpus' flag for hybrid system.

The difficulity is that we can't call perf_pmu__has_hybrid() in evlist.c
to check hybrid system otherwise 'perf test python' would be failed
(undefined symbol for perf_pmu__has_hybrid). If we add pmu.c to
python-ext-sources, too many symbol dependencies are hard to resolve.

We use an alternative method by using a new 'hybrid' flag in target
for hybrid system checking.

Subject: [PATCH v4 3/3] perf tools: Enable on a list of CPUs for hybrid

The perf-record and perf-stat have supported the option '-C/--cpus'
to count or collect only on the list of CPUs provided. This option
needs to be supported for hybrid as well.

For hybrid support, it needs to check that the cpu list are available
on hybrid PMU. One example for AlderLake, cpu0-7 is 'cpu_core', cpu8-11
is 'cpu_atom'.

Before:

# perf stat -e cpu_core/cycles/ -C11 -- sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 11':

<not supported> cpu_core/cycles/

1.006179431 seconds time elapsed

The perf-stat silently returned "<not supported>" without any helpful
information. It should error out that cpu11 was not 'cpu_core'.

After:

# perf stat -e cpu_core/cycles/ -C11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: 11 isn't a 'cpu_core', please use a CPU list in the 'cpu_core' range (0-7)
failed to use cpu list 11

We also need to support the events without pmu prefix specified.

# perf stat -e cycles -C11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: 11 isn't a 'cpu_core', please use a CPU list in the 'cpu_core' range (0-7)

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 11':

1,067,373 cpu_atom/cycles/

1.005544738 seconds time elapsed

The perf tool creates two cycles events automatically, cpu_core/cycles/ and
cpu_atom/cycles/. It checks that cpu11 is not 'cpu_core', then shows a warning
for cpu_core/cycles/ and only count the cpu_atom/cycles/.

If part of cpus are 'cpu_core' and part of cpus are 'cpu_atom', for example,

# perf stat -e cycles -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,11':

1,914,704 cpu_core/cycles/
2,036,983 cpu_atom/cycles/

1.005815641 seconds time elapsed

It now automatically selects cpu0 for cpu_core/cycles/, selects cpu11 for
cpu_atom/cycles/, and output with some warnings.

Some more complex examples,

# perf stat -e cycles,instructions -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'instructions', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'instructions', skip other cpus in list.

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,11':

2,780,387 cpu_core/cycles/
1,583,432 cpu_atom/cycles/
3,957,277 cpu_core/instructions/
1,167,089 cpu_atom/instructions/

1.006005124 seconds time elapsed

# perf stat -e cycles,cpu_atom/instructions/ -C0,11 -- sleep 1
WARNING: use 0 in 'cpu_core' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cycles', skip other cpus in list.
WARNING: use 11 in 'cpu_atom' for 'cpu_atom/instructions/', skip other cpus in list.

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,11':

1,953,073 cpu_atom/cycles/
