Subject: Re: [PATCH v1] perf parse-events: Avoid segv if PMU lookup fails for
 legacy cache terms

I added the Fixes as requested:

Fixes: 6fd1e5191591f9d5 ("perf parse-events: Support PMUs for legacy cache events")

Please check if the patch below helps a bit giving more info to the
user, but still a bit cryptic:

⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools]$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
                            \___ Failed to find PMU for perf_event_attr.type 3 (PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE)

Initial error:
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
                            \___ Failed to find PMU for perf_event_attr.type 3 (PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE)
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

 Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

    -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools]$

And the other case is needs more patching, so better leave this for 6.6.


⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools]$ perf stat -e cpu/cycles,cycles/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/'
                                \___ Failed to find PMU for type 0

Initial error:
event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/'
                                \___ Failed to find PMU for type 0
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

 Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

    -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools]$
