Subject[PATCH 06/11] perf, tools, stat: Force --per-core mode for .aggr-per-core aliases
Date
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

When an event alias is used that the kernel marked as .aggr-per-core, force
--per-core mode (and also require -a and forbid cgroups or per thread mode).
This in term means, --topdown forces --per-core mode.

This is needed for TopDown in SMT mode, because it needs to measure
all threads in a core together and merge the values to compute the correct
percentages of how the pipeline is limited.

We do this if any alias is aggr-per-core.

The main stat code does the necessary checks and forces per core mode.

v2: Rename agg-per-core to aggr-per-core
v3: Split patch into parse and use
