Subject: [PATCH] perf parse-events: Do not break up AUX event group
Date: Fri,  5 May 2023 09:44:52 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230505064452.9660-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com> (raw)

Assume AUX event group is correct and not do break it up.

Example:

 Before:

    $ perf record --no-bpf-event -c 10 -e '{intel_pt//,tlb_flush.stlb_any/aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' -- sleep 0.1
    WARNING: events were regrouped to match PMUs
    Cannot add AUX area sampling to a group leader

 After:

    $ perf record --no-bpf-event -c 10 -e '{intel_pt//,tlb_flush.stlb_any/aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' -- sleep 0.1
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.078 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script -F-dso,+addr | grep -C5 tlb_flush.stlb_any | head -11
