Subject[PATCH] perf record: Support sample-read topdown metric group for hybrid platforms
Date
From: Zhengjun Xing <zhengjun.xing@linux.intel.com>

With the hardware TopDown metrics feature, the sample-read feature should
be supported for a TopDown group, e.g., sample a non-topdown event and read
a Topdown metric group. But the current perf record code errors are out.

For a TopDown metric group,the slots event must be the leader of the group,
but the leader slots event doesn't support sampling. To support sample-read
the TopDown metric group, uses the 2nd event of the group as the "leader"
for the purposes of sampling.

Only the platform with the TopDown metric feature supports sample-read the
topdown group. In commit acb65150a47c ("perf record: Support sample-read
topdown metric group"), it adds arch_topdown_sample_read() to indicate
whether the TopDown group supports sample-read, it should only work on the
non-hybrid systems, this patch extends the support for hybrid platforms.

Before:

# ./perf record -e "{cpu_core/slots/,cpu_core/cycles/,cpu_core/topdown-retiring/}:S" -a sleep 1
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cpu_core/topdown-retiring/).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

After:

# ./perf record -e "{cpu_core/slots/,cpu_core/cycles/,cpu_core/topdown-retiring/}:S" -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.238 MB perf.data (369 samples) ]

Fixes: acb65150a47c ("perf record: Support sample-read topdown metric group")
