[PATCH 0/7] perf cs-etm/arm-spe: Remove hard coded config fields
Posted by James Clark 3 hours ago
The specific config field that an event format attribute is in is
consistently hard coded, even though the API is supposed to be that the
driver publishes the config field name. To stop this pattern from being
copy pasted and causing problems in the future, replace them all with
calls to a new helper that returns the value that a user set.

The existing evsel__set_config_if_unset() also has a similar problem
that it hard codes attr.config, so fix that too.

There are no functional changes here because all the fields touched are
in attr.config and not config1 or config2 etc. Although this may not be
the case for new fields.
