Hi,
Like the cortex-a53 the last digit '0' of the match for the MIDR should be replaced with [[:xdigit:]] to allow for possible future revisions of chip:

0x00000000430f0af[[:xdigit:]],v1,cavium,core

Ganapatrao, can you please take this in consideration and if agreeing
send a v2 patch?

With that I can add an Acked-by: wcohen, Right?

JFYI, This patch conflicts with "[PATCH v2 00/11] perf events patches 
for improved ARM64 support". I was planning on sending a v3 quite soon.

Thanks for pointing that out.  See the code masking out those bits in linux/toos/perf/arch/util/header.c. For the ppc64 it just copies the equivalent of the MIDR including the revision bits. Thus, the need for regular expression matching to avoid having to create a new entry for each revision.

It is same for arm64 too, there is no need to add an entry for every
revision change,  need to add when part number changes.
This patch is not intended to add entry for revision change, the fact
of the matter is that, there  is complete MIDR change (vulcan to
thunderx2) in B0.
as per current arm64
implementation(.tools/perf/arch/arm64/util/header.c), it is not
required to have any dontcare marking in mapfile for revision/variant
bits.

Ok, so, as John mentioned in another message in his thread, this
conflicts with a series he sent and that Ganapatrao acked and I already
applied, I looked at it and think this patch should turn into the patch
at the end of this message, which I'm applying with the commit log
message in the original patch in this thread, Ack?

Hi Ganapat,

Would it make more sense to pass the MIDR value unmodified and then use regular expressions in mapfile.csv to match the values?  If an event on a particular processor revision is broken or unusable it can be excluded from the list of events with a corrected list of events.  There certainly have been errata listing events that do not work on specific revisions of armv8 processor implementations.

Then there are vendors who do not always properly implemenent MIDR or 
IIDRs (people who live in glass houses...).

Hi John,

Attached is a patch that leaves the MIDR value unmodified and uses regular expressions in the mapfile.csv instead to ignore those bits.  I have verified that the changes work on ARM Cortex a53 processor.  Does it look reasonable?

Hi Will,

This looks ok.

Personally I find the regular expression in the cpuid slightly difficult 
to read. I mean, for example, for the revision digit we are using a 
12-char regular expression in place, which warps the cpuid string length.

BTW, can you also update the pmu events README to mention that posix 
regular expressions in the CPUID are acceptable?

Thanks,
John
