perf/tool: Add PMU event alias support
Add support to specify alias term within the event description. The definition of pmu event alias is located at: ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/events/ Each file in the 'events' directory defines a event alias. Its contents are like: config=1,config1=2 Using pmu event alias, an event can be now specified like: uncore/CLOCKTICKS/ or uncore/event=CLOCKTICKS/ Signed-off-by: Zheng Yan <zheng.z.yan@intel.com> [ Cleaned it up. ] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1339741902-8449-13-git-send-email-zheng.z.yan@intel.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
