[PATCH 22/24] perf test: Test pmu-events aliases

From: John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com>

Add creating event aliases to the pmu-events test.

So currently we verify that the generated pmu-events.c is as expected for
some test events. Now test that we generate aliases as expected for those
events during normal operation.

For that, we cycle through each HW PMU in the system, and use the test
events to create aliases, and verify those against known, expected values.

For core PMUs, we should create an alias for every event in
test_cpu_events[].

However, for uncore PMUs, they need to be matched by the pmu_event.pmu
member, so use test_uncore_events[]; so check the match beforehand with
pmu_uncore_alias_match().

A sample run is as follows for my x86 machine:

john@linux-3c19:~/linux> tools/perf/perf test -vv 10
10: PMU events :
--- start ---

...

testing PMU uncore_arb aliases: no events to match
testing PMU cstate_pkg aliases: no events to match
skipping testing PMU breakpoint
testing aliases PMU uncore_cbox_1: matched event unc_cbo_xsnp_response.miss_eviction
testing PMU uncore_cbox_1 aliases: pass
testing PMU power aliases: no events to match
testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event bp_l1_btb_correct
testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event bp_l2_btb_correct
testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event segment_reg_loads.any
testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event dispatch_blocked.any
testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event eist_trans
testing PMU cpu aliases: pass
testing PMU intel_pt aliases: no events to match
skipping testing PMU software
skipping testing PMU intel_bts
testing PMU uncore_imc aliases: no events to match
testing aliases PMU uncore_cbox_0: matched event unc_cbo_xsnp_response.miss_eviction
testing PMU uncore_cbox_0 aliases: pass
testing PMU cstate_core aliases: no events to match
skipping testing PMU tracepoint
testing PMU msr aliases: no events to match
test child finished with 0
