perf pmu: Support per pmu json aliases
Add support for registering json aliases per PMU. Any alias with an unit matching the prefix is registered to the PMU. Uncore has multiple instances of most units, so all these aliases get registered for each individual PMU (this is important later to run the event on every instance of the PMU). To avoid printing the events multiple times in perf list filter out duplicated events during printing. v2: Rely on uncore_ prefix already in unit v3: Document why calls were reordered Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170128020345.19007-4-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
