Thanks John, I'm not opposed to this change. My understanding is it
will give greater testing coverage. As previously mentioned I'd like
longer term we have a sysfs like abstraction for the json events. For
CPUs this could be like:
<cpuid>/cpu/events/inst_retired.any
<cpuid>/cpu/events/inst_retired.any.scale
<cpuid>/cpu/events/inst_retired.any.unit
<cpuid>/cpu/events/inst_retired.any.desc
...
<cpuid>/cpu/metrics/ipc
<cpuid>/cpu/metrics/ipc.scale
<cpuid>/cpu/metrics/ipc.unit
...
<cpuid>/uncore_imc_free_running_0/events/unc_mc0_rdcas_count_freerun
...
Where <cpuid> comes from mapfile.csv. I'd like to union the in memory
json event generated sysfs, with the kernel sysfs. There needs to be
some kind of wildcard mechanism for all the uncore counters. Such a
union-ing could allow on an disk sysfs, and this could be a route for
testing.
For sys metrics I guess we'd so something like:
sys/hisi_sicl/events/cpa_cycles
sys/hisi_sicl/events/cpa_cycles.desc
...
sys/cpa/events/cpa_cycles
sys/cpa/cpa_cycles.desc
...
or perhaps have some kind of wildcard matching syntax:
sys/(hisi_sicl|cpa)/events/cpa_cycles
sys/(hisi_sicl|cpa)/events/cpa_cycles.desc
...
So ultimately I can imagine the distinction of sys and cpu are going
to become less, and we just test properties of PMUs. The ideas of
tables should be hidden, but we could have a boolean on a PMU to say
whether it is a sys or cpu type.

nit: Here and below. Could we name the argument here, so:
ret = metricgroup__parse_groups_test(evlist, pme_test,
/*sys_table=*/NULL, metric_str, &metric_events);
for clarity it would be nice if pme_test were cpu_table.
Thanks,
Ian
