The arrays contain pointers to strings that need relocating. The relocations have file size, run time and memory costs. These changes refactor the pmu_events API so that the storage of the pmu_event struct isn't exposed. The format is then changed to an offset within a combined big string, with adjacent pmu_event struct variables being next to each other in the string separated by \0 - meaning only the first variable of the struct needs its offset recording. Some related fixes are contained with the patches. The architecture jevents.py creates tables for can now be set by the JEVENTS_ARCH make variable, with a new 'all' that generates the events and metrics for all architectures. An example of the improvement to the file size on x86 is: no jevents - the same 19,788,464bytes x86 jevents - ~16.7% file size saving 23,744,288bytes vs 28,502,632bytes all jevents - ~19.5% file size saving 24,469,056bytes vs 30,379,920bytes default build options plus NO_LIBBFD=1. I originally suggested fixing this problem in: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/CAP-5=fVB8G4bdb9T=FncRTh9oBVKCS=+=eowAO+YSgAhab+Dtg@mail.gmail.com/ v4. Fixed an issue with the empty-pmu-events.c spotted by John Garry <john.garry@...wei.com>. v3. Fix an ARM build issue with a missed weak symbol. Perform some pytype clean up. v2. Split the substring folding optimization to its own patch and comment tweaks as suggested by Namhyung Kim <namhyung@...nel.org>. Recompute the file size savings with the latest json events and metrics.
