A big uncore event group is split into multiple small groups which only include the uncore events from the same PMU. This has been supported in the commit3cdc5c2cb9("perf parse-events: Handle uncore event aliases in small groups properly"). If the event's PMU name starts to repeat, it must be a new event. That can be used to distinguish the leader from other members. But now it only compares the pointer of pmu_name (leader->pmu_name == evsel->pmu_name). If we use "perf stat -M LLC_MISSES.PCIE_WRITE -a" on cascadelakex, the event list is: evsel->name evsel->pmu_name --------------------------------------------------------------- unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part0 uncore_iio_4 (as leader) unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part0 uncore_iio_2 unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part0 uncore_iio_0 unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part0 uncore_iio_5 unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part0 uncore_iio_3 unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part0 uncore_iio_1 unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part1 uncore_iio_4 ...... For the event "unc_iio_data_req_of_cpu.mem_write.part1" with "uncore_iio_4", it should be the event from PMU "uncore_iio_4". It's not a new leader for this PMU. But if we use "(leader->pmu_name == evsel->pmu_name)", the check would be failed and the event is stored to leaders[] as a new PMU leader. So this patch uses strcmp to compare the PMU name between events.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
