Subject: [PATCH 0/3] perf: Support event alias in form foo-bar-baz
Date:   Mon, 17 Jan 2022 23:10:12 +0800

Currently event aliases in the form foo-bar-baz are not supported.

The HiSilicon D06 platform has uncore event aliases in that form, and
using those aliases fail:

$ ./perf list sdir-home-migrate 
  
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e): 
  
uncore hha:
  sdir-home-migrate 
 [Unit: hisi_sccl,hha]  

$ sudo ./perf stat -e sdir-home-migrate  
event syntax error: 'sdir-home-migrate'  
                        \___ parser error  
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

This series added support for such an event alias form.

I am no expert on l+y, so any and all review here would be appreciated,
especially the last patch which is marked as RFC (for that same reason).

The series is based on acme perf/core @ 9bce13ea88f8.
