When the user specifies a pmu directly, expand it automatically with a
prefix match for all available PMUs, similar as we do for the normal
aliases now.
This allows to specify attributes for duplicated boxes quickly. For
example uncore_cbox_{0,6}/.../ can be now specified as uncore_cbox/.../
and it gets automatically expanded for all boxes.
This generally makes it more concise to write uncore specifications, and
also avoids the need to know the exact topology of the system.
Before:
% perf stat -a -e uncore_cbox_0/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\
uncore_cbox_1/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\
uncore_cbox_2/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\
uncore_cbox_3/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\
uncore_cbox_4/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/,\
uncore_cbox_5/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/ sleep 1
After:
% perf stat -a -e uncore_cbox/event=0x35,umask=0x1,filter_opc=0x19C/ sleep 1
v2: Handle all bison rules. Move multi add code to separate function.
Handle uncore_ prefix correctly.
v3: Move parse_events_multi_pmu_add to separate patch. Move uncore
prefix check to separate patch.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
