Thanks for pointing out this. Yeah, I think German's suggestion is
valid, the commit 6ae5fa61d27d ("perf/x86: Fix data source decoding
for Skylake") introduces new field 'mem_lvl_num', but it also keeps
backwards compatible for the field 'mem_lvl'.

For PEER_CORE data source, we don't know if it's coming from peer
core's L1 cache or L2 cache, right?
If so, do you think if it's possible to retrieve more accurate info
from the field "record->type"?

Seems to me, we need to add attribution to indicate the difference
between ARM_SPE_NV_PEER_CORE and ARM_SPE_NV_LCL_CLSTR.
For ARM_SPE_NV_PEER_CLSTR data source, should we set any "remote"
attribution as well?

Just curious, is it possible that 'record->source' combines multiple
bits? Like we can get a data source value with:
ARM_SPE_NV_REMOTE | ARM_SPE_NV_REMOTE

Yeah, arm_spe_process_event() would be invoked for multiple times for
processing perf events. arm_spe_process_auxtrace_info() would be a
good place to initialize midr.
