Subject[RFC 2/3] perf, tools: Display pmu name when printing unmerged events in stat
Date
Starting on v4.12 event parsing code for dynamic pmu events supports
prefix-based matching of multiple pmus when creating dynamic events.
E.g., in a system with the following dynamic pmus:

l3cache_0_0
l3cache_0_1
l3cache_0_2
l3cache_0_3

passing l3cache/<config>/ as an event spec will result in the creation
of the event in all of the pmus. When this functionality is used in
stat the command will by default merge the event counts and display
a single value. E.g.:

./perf stat -a -e l3cache/read-miss/ ls > /dev/null

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

328 l3cache/read-miss/

0.001661809 seconds time elapsed

JSON-based alias events behave in the same way:

$ ./perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss ls > /dev/null

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

229 l3cache_read_miss

0.001656099 seconds time elapsed

This behavior can be disabled by the --no-merge option but the real
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

This is also the case for alias events, e.g.:

$ ./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/
74 l3cache_0_1/read-miss/
64 l3cache_0_2/read-miss/
74 l3cache_0_0/read-miss/

0.001675706 seconds time elapsed

For alias events the name is added after the event name:

$ ./perf stat -a -e l3cache_read_miss --no-merge ls > /dev/null

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_3]
12 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_1]
10 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_2]
17 l3cache_read_miss [l3cache_0_0]

0.001661305 seconds time elapsed
