perf record: Add a dummy event on hybrid systems to collect metadata records
Some symbols may not be resolved if a user only monitors one type of PMU. $ sudo perf record -e cpu_atom/branch-instructions/ ./big_small_workload $ sudo perf report –stdio # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ......... ................. ..................... # 28.02% perf-exec [unknown] [.] 0x0000000000401cf6 11.32% perf-exec [unknown] [.] 0x0000000000401d04 10.90% perf-exec [unknown] [.] 0x0000000000401d11 10.61% perf-exec [unknown] [.] 0x0000000000401cfc To parse symbols the metadata records, e.g., PERF_RECORD_COMM, which are generated by the kernel, are required. To decide whether to generate the metadata records, the kernel relies on the event_filter_match() to filter the unrelated events. On a hybrid system, event_filter_match() further checks the CPU mask of the current enabled PMU. If an event is collected on the CPU which doesn't have an enabled PMU, it's treated as an unrelated event. The "big_small_workload" is created in a big core, but runs on a small core. The metadata records are filtered, because the user only monitors the PMU of the small core. The big core PMU is not enabled. For a hybrid system, a dummy event is required to generate the complete side-band events.
