Subject: [PATCH 6/7] perf tools: Add pmu mappings to header information
With dynamic pmu allocation there are also dynamically assigned pmu
ids. These ids are used in event->attr.type to describe the pmu to be
used for that event. The information is available in sysfs, e.g:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/breakpoint/type: 5
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/type: 4
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_fetch/type: 6
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/ibs_op/type: 7
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/software/type: 1
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/tracepoint/type: 2
These mappings are needed to know which samples belong to which pmu.
If a pmu is added dynamically like for ibs_fetch or ibs_op the type
value may vary.
Now, when decoding samples from perf.data this information in sysfs
might be no longer available or may have changed. We need to store it
in perf.data. Using the header for this. The header information
created with perf report would contain an additional section looking
like this:
# pmu mappings: ibs_op = 7, ibs_fetch = 6, cpu = 4, breakpoint = 5, tracepoint = 2, software = 1
V2:
* improve error handling in print_pmu_mappings()
* use perf_pmu__scan() to iterate over pmus
