perf parse-events: Remove "not supported" hybrid cache events
By default, we create two hybrid cache events, one is for cpu_core, and another is for cpu_atom. But Some hybrid hardware cache events are only available on one CPU PMU. For example, the 'L1-dcache-load-misses' is only available on cpu_core, while the 'L1-icache-loads' is only available on cpu_atom. We need to remove "not supported" hybrid cache events. By extending is_event_supported() to global API and using it to check if the hybrid cache events are supported before being created, we can remove the "not supported" hybrid cache events. Before: # ./perf stat -e L1-dcache-load-misses,L1-icache-loads -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 52,570 cpu_core/L1-dcache-load-misses/ <not supported> cpu_atom/L1-dcache-load-misses/ <not supported> cpu_core/L1-icache-loads/ 1,471,817 cpu_atom/L1-icache-loads/ 1.004915229 seconds time elapsed After: # ./perf stat -e L1-dcache-load-misses,L1-icache-loads -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 54,510 cpu_core/L1-dcache-load-misses/ 1,441,286 cpu_atom/L1-icache-loads/ 1.005114281 seconds time elapsed Fixes: 30def61f64bac5f5 ("perf parse-events: Create two hybrid cache events") Reported-by: Yi Ammy <ammy.yi@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Xing Zhengjun <zhengjun.xing@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220923030013.3726410-2-zhengjun.xing@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
