Subject: [PATCH v1] perf metricgroup: Avoid scanning unnecessary PMUs for identifier match
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 15:44:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326224454.2101190-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

Only uncore PMUs can have an identifier, so add an optimized
perf_pmus__scan routine for that case to avoid all PMU types being
created.
