Separate the code in pmu.[ch] from the set/list of PMUs case and the
particular PMU case. Move the set/list of PMUs case code into
pmus.[ch]. Clean up hybrid code and remove hybrid PMU list, it is
sufficient to scan PMUs looking for core ones. Add core PMU list and
perf_pmus__scan_core that just reads core PMUs. Switch code that skips
non-core PMUs during a perf_pmus__scan, to use the
perf_pmus__scan_core variant. Don't scan sysfs for PMUs if all such
PMUs have been previously scanned/loaded. Scanning just just core
PMUs, for the cases it is applicable, can improve the sysfs reading
time by more than 4 fold on my laptop, as servers generally have many
more uncore PMUs the improvement there should be larger:
```
$ perf bench internals pmu-scan -i 1000
Computing performance of sysfs PMU event scan for 1000 times
Average core PMU scanning took: 989.231 usec (+- 1.535 usec)
Average PMU scanning took: 4309.425 usec (+- 74.322 usec)
```
The patch "perf pmu: Separate pmu and pmus" moves and renames a lot of
functions, and is consequently large. The changes are trivial, but
kept together to keep the overall number of patches more reasonable.
Ian Rogers (23):
perf tools: Warn if no user requested CPUs match PMU's CPUs
perf evlist: Remove evlist__warn_hybrid_group
perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default
perf evlist: Reduce scope of evlist__has_hybrid
perf pmu: Remove perf_pmu__hybrid_mounted
perf pmu: Detect ARM and hybrid PMUs with sysfs
perf pmu: Add is_core to pmu
perf pmu: Rewrite perf_pmu__has_hybrid to avoid list
perf x86: Iterate hybrid PMUs as core PMUs
perf topology: Avoid hybrid list for hybrid topology
perf evsel: Compute is_hybrid from PMU being core
perf header: Avoid hybrid PMU list in write_pmu_caps
perf metrics: Remove perf_pmu__is_hybrid use
perf stat: Avoid hybrid PMU list
perf mem: Avoid hybrid PMU list
perf pmu: Remove perf_pmu__hybrid_pmus list
perf pmus: Prefer perf_pmu__scan over perf_pmus__for_each_pmu
perf x86 mem: minor refactor to is_mem_loads_aux_event
perf pmu: Separate pmu and pmus
perf pmus: Split pmus list into core and uncore
perf pmus: Allow just core PMU scanning
perf pmus: Avoid repeated sysfs scanning
perf pmus: Ensure all PMUs are read for find_by_type
