[PATCH v2 1/2] perf arm-spe: Use SPE data source for neoverse cores
From: Ali Saidi
Date: Mon Feb 21 2022 - 17:48:29 EST
When synthesizing data from SPE, augment the type with source information
for Arm Neoverse cores. The field is IMPLDEF but the Neoverse cores all use
the same encoding. I can't find encoding information for any other SPE
implementations to unify their choices with Arm's thus that is left for
future work.
This change populates the mem_lvl_num for Neoverse cores instead of the
deprecated mem_lvl namespace.
