[PATCH RFC 6/9] perf metrics: Add metricgroup_sys_metric_supported()

From: John Garry
Date: Wed Jun 28 2023 - 06:34:04 EST


Add a function to match a sys metric for the host.

Currently we do the following the match a metric:
- iter through all sys metrics for all sys event tables
- for each iter, iter through all PMUs
- if the PMU Unit and id match the metric Unit and compat, then the metric
matches for the host

We should not be required to match a metric Unit and compat, unless the
metric explicitly specifies target PMU, like:
"MetricExpr": "imx8_ddr0@axid\\-read\\,axi_mask\\=0xffff\\,axi_id\\=0x0000@",

Rather, we should be match against events aliases present from the events
in the same pmu_sys_events structure. Those events added will be gated on
matching Unit and Compat specifiers.

The steps in metricgroup_match_sys_pm() are as follows:
a. Find event table associated with metric table
b. Call add_metric() for the metric, which resolves referenced metrics and
generates a list of type struct metric
c. Iter through metric list and parse ids, to find a list of evsel's
d. For each evsel, match event against known events in event table
e. If we can't match an evsel as the metric explicitly specifies target PMU,
just match evsel PMU against metric Unit and Compat.

Step d. is required as in parse_ids() -> parse_events_add_pmu(), we might
have matched metric for other system which has the same name, i.e. when
we find matching event and PMU, we must ensure it matches compat for event
from metric's associated event table.

Function metricgroup__sys_event_iter() will now call
metricgroup_sys_metric_supported() to match the metric.
