Currently topdown events must appear after a slots event:
$ perf stat -e '{slots,topdown-fe-bound}' /bin/true
Performance counter stats for '/bin/true':
3,183,090 slots
986,133 topdown-fe-bound
Reversing the events yields:
$ perf stat -e '{topdown-fe-bound,slots}' /bin/true
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (topdown-fe-bound).
For metrics the order of events is determined by iterating over a
hashmap, and so slots isn't guaranteed to be first which can yield this
error.
Change the set_leader in parse-events, called when a group is closed, so
that rather than always making the first event the leader, if the slots
event exists then it is made the leader. It is then moved to the head of
the evlist otherwise it won't be opened in the correct order.
The result is:
$ perf stat -e '{topdown-fe-bound,slots}' /bin/true
Performance counter stats for '/bin/true':
3,274,795 slots
1,001,702 topdown-fe-bound
A problem with this approach is the slots event is identified by name,
names can be overwritten like 'cpu/slots,name=foo/' and this causes the
leader change to fail.
The change also modifies and fixes mixed groups like, with the change:
$ perf stat -e '{instructions,slots,topdown-fe-bound}' -a -- sleep 2
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
5574985410 slots
971981616 instructions
1348461887 topdown-fe-bound
2.001263120 seconds time elapsed
Without the change:
$ perf stat -e '{instructions,slots,topdown-fe-bound}' -a -- sleep 2
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
<not counted> instructions
<not counted> slots
<not supported> topdown-fe-bound
2.006247990 seconds time elapsed
Something that may be undesirable here is that the events are reordered
in the output.
v2. Move the list_move operation into parse_events__set_leader as
suggested by Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com>.
v3. Switched list_entry to list_first_entry as suggested by Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>.
