Subject: [PATCH v2 01/12] perf parse-events: Refactor get_config_terms() to remove macros
Date: Mon, 08 Dec 2025 14:22:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251208-james-perf-config-bits-v2-1-4ac0281993b0@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251208-james-perf-config-bits-v2-0-4ac0281993b0@linaro.org>
The ADD_CONFIG_TERM() macros build the __type argument out of a partial
EVSEL__CONFIG_TERM_x enum name. This means that they can't be called
from a function where __type is a variable and it's also impossible to
grep the codebase to find usages of these enums as they're never typed
in full.
Fix this by removing the macros and replacing them with an
add_config_term() function. It seems the main reason these existed in
the first place was to avoid type punning and to write to a specific
field in the union, but the same thing can be achieved with a single
write to a u64 'val' field.
