Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: Fix L2 Topdown metrics disappear for raw events
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2022 22:00:57 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220826140057.3289401-1-zhengjun.xing@linux.intel.com> (raw)
From: Zhengjun Xing <zhengjun.xing@linux.intel.com>
In perf/Documentation/perf-stat.txt, for "--td-level" the default "0" means
the max level that the current hardware support. So we need initialize the
stat_config.topdown_level to TOPDOWN_MAX_LEVEL when “--td-level=0” or no
“--td-level” option. Otherwise, for the hardware with a max level is 2, the
2nd level metrics disappear for raw events in this case. The issue cannot
be observed for the perf stat default or "--topdown" options. This commit
fixes the raw events issue and removes the duplicated code for the perf
stat default.
Before:
# ./perf stat -e "cpu-clock,context-switches,cpu-migrations,page-faults,instructions,cycles,ref-cycles,branches,branch-misses,{slots,topdown-retiring,topdown-bad-spec,topdown-fe-bound,topdown-be-bound,topdown-heavy-ops,topdown-br-mispredict,topdown-fetch-lat,topdown-mem-bound}" sleep 1
