Subject: [RFC PATCH v1] perf parse-events: Make legacy events lower priority
than sysfs/json
The perf tool has previously made legacy events the priority so with
or without a PMU the legacy event would be opened:
```
$ perf stat -e cpu-cycles,cpu/cpu-cycles/ true
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8D-1
intel_pt default config: tsc,mtc,mtc_period=3,psb_period=3,pt,branch
Attempting to add event pmu 'cpu' with 'cpu-cycles,' that may result in non-fatal errors
After aliases, add event pmu 'cpu' with 'cpu-cycles,' that may result in non-fatal errors
Control descriptor is not initialized
------------------------------------------------------------
perf_event_attr:
type 0 (PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE)
size 136
config 0 (PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES)
sample_type IDENTIFIER
read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
disabled 1
inherit 1
enable_on_exec 1
exclude_guest 1
------------------------------------------------------------
sys_perf_event_open: pid 833967 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 3
------------------------------------------------------------
perf_event_attr:
type 0 (PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE)
size 136
config 0 (PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES)
sample_type IDENTIFIER
read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
disabled 1
inherit 1
enable_on_exec 1
exclude_guest 1
------------------------------------------------------------
...
```
Fixes to make hybrid/BIG.little PMUs behave correctly, ie as core PMUs
capable of opening legacy events on each, removing hard coded
"cpu_core" and "cpu_atom" Intel PMU names, etc. caused a behavioral
difference on Apple/ARM due to latent issues in the PMU driver
reported in:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/08f1f185-e259-4014-9ca4-6411d5c1bc65@marcan.st/
As part of that report Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@....com> requested
that legacy events not be higher in priority when a PMU is specified
reversing what has until this change been perf's default
behavior. With this change the above becomes:
```
$ perf stat -e cpu-cycles,cpu/cpu-cycles/ true
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8D-1
Attempt to add: cpu/cpu-cycles=0/
..after resolving event: cpu/event=0x3c/
Control descriptor is not initialized
------------------------------------------------------------
perf_event_attr:
type 0 (PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE)
size 136
config 0 (PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES)
sample_type IDENTIFIER
read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
disabled 1
inherit 1
enable_on_exec 1
exclude_guest 1
------------------------------------------------------------
sys_perf_event_open: pid 827628 cpu -1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 3
------------------------------------------------------------
perf_event_attr:
type 4 (PERF_TYPE_RAW)
size 136
config 0x3c
sample_type IDENTIFIER
read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
disabled 1
inherit 1
enable_on_exec 1
exclude_guest 1
------------------------------------------------------------
...
```
So the second event has become a raw event as
/sys/devices/cpu/events/cpu-cycles exists.
A fix was necessary to config_term_pmu in parse-events.c as
check_alias expansion needs to happen after config_term_pmu, and
config_term_pmu may need calling a second time because of this.
config_term_pmu is updated to not use the legacy event when the PMU
has such a named event (either from json or sysfs).
The bulk of this change is updating all of the parse-events test
expectations so that if a sysfs/json event exists for a PMU the test
doesn't fail - a further sign, if it were needed, that the legacy
event priority was a known and tested behavior of the perf tool.

This is a large behavioral change:
1) the scope of the change means it should bake on linux-next and I
don't believe should be a 6.7-rc fix.
2) a fixes tag and stable backport I don't think are appropriate. The
real reported issue is with the PMU driver. A backport would bring the
risk that later fixes, due to the large behavior change, wouldn't be
backported and past releases get regressed in scenarios like
hybrid. Backports for the perf tool are also less necessary than say a
buggy PMU driver, as distributions should be updating to the latest
perf tool regardless of what Linux kernel is being run (the perf tool
is backward compatible).
