On the Intel Sapphire Rapids server, an auxiliary event has to be
enabled simultaneously with the load latency event to retrieve complete
Memory Info.
Add X86 specific perf_mem_events__name() to handle the auxiliary event.
- Users are only interested in the samples of the mem-loads event.
Sample read the auxiliary event.
- The auxiliary event must be in front of the load latency event in a
group. Assume the second event to sample if the auxiliary event is the
leader.
- Add a weak is_mem_loads_aux_event() to check the auxiliary event for
X86. For other ARCHs, it always return false.
Parse the unique event name, mem-loads-aux, for the auxiliary event.
Committer notes:
According to 61b985e3e7 ("perf/x86/intel: Add perf core PMU
support for Sapphire Rapids"), ENODATA is only returned by
sys_perf_event_open() when used with these auxiliary events, with this
in evsel__open_strerror():
case ENODATA:
return scnprintf(msg, size, "Cannot collect data source with the load latency event alone. "
"Please add an auxiliary event in front of the load latency event.");
This is Ok at this point in time, but fragile long term, I pointed this
out in the e-mail thread, requesting a follow up patch to check if
ENODATA is really for this specific case.
Fixed up sizeof(MEM_LOADS_AUX_NAME) bug pointed out by Namhyung.
