Subject: [PATCH v1 0/8] perf c2c: Sort cacheline with LLC load
If the memory event doesn't contain HITM tag (like Arm SPE), it cannot
rely on HITM display to report cache false sharing. Alternatively, we
can use the LLC access and multi-threads info to locate the potential
false sharing's data address, and if we connect with source code and
analyze the multi-threads' execution timing, if can conclude load and
store the same cache line at the meantime, thus this can be helpful for
resolve the cache false sharing issue.
This patch set is to enable the display with sorting on LLC load
accesses; it adds dimensions for total LLC hit and LLC load accesses,
and these dimensions are used for shared cache line table and pareto.
This patch set is dependend on the patch set "perf c2c: Refine the
organization of metrics" [1].
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/cover/1321499/
With this patch set, we can get display 'llc' as follows:
# perf c2c report -d llc --coalesce tid,pid,iaddr,dso --stdio
