[PATCH] perf metrics: Fixes stat cmd cannot parse sys metrics when cpus MIDR mismatch
Posted by Junhao He 1 year, 4 months ago 
On some platforms that do not use cpu MIDR mapping, such as hisilicon
HIP09 platform. The list cmd can display the CPA metrics, but the stat
cmd cannot work well to parse of CPA metrics.

  $ perf list metric
  Metrics:
    cpa_p0_avg_bw
         [Average bandwidth of CPA Port 0]
    cpa_p1_avg_bw
         [Average bandwidth of CPA Port 1]
  $ perf stat -M cpa_p0_avg_bw --timeout 1000 --> No error messages output
  $ echo $?
  234

Currently, the metricgroup__parse_groups() expects to find an cpu metric
table, but the hisilicon/hip09 doesn't uses cpus MIDR to map json events
and metrics, so pmu_metrics_table__find() will return NULL, than the cmd
run failed.
But in metricgroup__add_metric(), the function parse for each sys metric
and add it to metric_list, which also will get an valid sys metric table.
So, we can ignore the NULL result of pmu_metrics_table__find() and to use
the sys metric table.

metricgroup__parse_groups
 -> parse_groups
     -> metricgroup__add_metric_list
         -> metricgroup__add_metric
             -> pmu_for_each_sys_metric   --> We've got the sys metric

Testing:
  [root@localhost ~]# perf stat -M cpa_p0_avg_bw --no-merge --timeout 1000

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

   CPU0        1,001,121,239      cpa_cycles [hisi_sicl0_cpa0]     #     0.00 cpa_p0_avg_bw
   CPU0                    0      cpa_p0_wr_dat [hisi_sicl0_cpa0]
   CPU0                    0      cpa_p0_rd_dat_64b [hisi_sicl0_cpa0]
   CPU0                    0      cpa_p0_rd_dat_32b [hisi_sicl0_cpa0]
   CPU0        1,001,094,851      cpa_cycles [hisi_sicl2_cpa0]     #     0.00 cpa_p0_avg_bw
   CPU0                    0      cpa_p0_wr_dat [hisi_sicl2_cpa0]
   CPU0                    0      cpa_p0_rd_dat_64b [hisi_sicl2_cpa0]
   CPU0                    0      cpa_p0_rd_dat_32b [hisi_sicl2_cpa0]

The changes looks fine to me, I'd prefer to add some documents for this. See below.

may add a comment here. If !table then the metrics may belong to a system PMU.

may add a debug message to mention we're parsing metrics of system PMUs.

Thanks.
