OK.

OK.

Yes, it should have only one term in head_config.

Now I change the code to:

+       if (!parse_state->fake_pmu && head_config && !found &&
+           perf_pmu__is_hybrid(name)) {
+               struct parse_events_term *term;
+
+               term = list_first_entry(head_config, struct parse_events_term,
+                                       list);
+               if (term->config) {
+                       return parse_events__with_hybrid_pmu(parse_state,
+                                                            term->config,
+                                                            name, list);
+               }
+       }

Yes, we can direct return parse_events__with_hybrid_pmu().

Hmm, it's not necessary in new code, sorry about that.

Do you suggest we directly call __parse_events()?

int __parse_events(struct evlist *evlist, const char *str,
		   struct parse_events_error *err, struct perf_pmu *fake_pmu)

	struct parse_events_state parse_state = {
		.list	  = LIST_HEAD_INIT(parse_state.list),
		.idx	  = evlist->core.nr_entries,
		.error	  = err,
		.evlist	  = evlist,
		.stoken	  = PE_START_EVENTS,
		.fake_pmu = fake_pmu,
	};

But for parse_events__with_hybrid_pmu, we don't have valid evlist. So if we switch to 
__parse_events, evlist processing may be a problem.

So could we still keep current parse_events__with_hybrid_pmu()?

Yes, the code will be changed to:

+
+       if (!ret) {
+               if (!list_empty(&ps.list)) {
+                       list_splice(&ps.list, list);
+                       parse_state->idx = ps.idx;
+               }
+       }

OK, I will use hybrid_pmu_name in next version.
