Subject: [PATCH v2] tools/perf/metricgroup: Fix printing event names of metric group with multiple events incase of overlapping events
Commit f01642e4912b ("perf metricgroup: Support multiple
events for metricgroup") introduced support for multiple events
in a metric group. But with the current upstream, metric events
names are not printed properly incase we try to run multiple
metric groups with overlapping event.
With current upstream version, incase of overlapping metric events
issue is, we always start our comparision logic from start.
So, the events which already matched with some metric group also
take part in comparision logic. Because of that when we have overlapping
events, we end up matching current metric group event with already matched
one.
For example, in skylake machine we have metric event CoreIPC and
Instructions. Both of them need 'inst_retired.any' event value.
As events in Instructions is subset of events in CoreIPC, they
endup in pointing to same 'inst_retired.any' value.
In skylake platform:
command:# ./perf stat -M CoreIPC,Instructions -C 0 sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
1,254,992,790 inst_retired.any # 1254992790.0
Instructions
# 1.3 CoreIPC
977,172,805 cycles
1,254,992,756 inst_retired.any
1.000802596 seconds time elapsed
command:# sudo ./perf stat -M UPI,IPC sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
948,650 uops_retired.retire_slots
866,182 inst_retired.any # 0.7 IPC
866,182 inst_retired.any
1,175,671 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread
Patch fixes the issue by adding a new variable 'evlist_iter' in evlist
itself to keep track of events which already matched with some group.
It points to event in perf_evlist from where next match should start.
Because we need to make sure, we match correct set of events belongs to
corresponding metric group.
With this patch:
In skylake platform:
command:# ./perf stat -M CoreIPC,Instructions -C 0 sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
149,481,533 inst_retired.any # 0.8 CoreIPC
186,244,218 cycles
