John Garry 956a78356c perf test: Test pmu-events aliases
Add creating event aliases to the pmu-events test.

So currently we verify that the generated pmu-events.c is as expected for
some test events. Now test that we generate aliases as expected for those
events during normal operation.

For that, we cycle through each HW PMU in the system, and use the test
events to create aliases, and verify those against known, expected values.

For core PMUs, we should create an alias for every event in
test_cpu_events[].

However, for uncore PMUs, they need to be matched by the pmu_event.pmu
member, so use test_uncore_events[]; so check the match beforehand with
pmu_uncore_alias_match().

A sample run is as follows for my x86 machine:

  john@linux-3c19:~/linux> tools/perf/perf test -vv 10
  10: PMU events                                            :
  --- start ---

  ...

  testing PMU uncore_arb aliases: no events to match
  testing PMU cstate_pkg aliases: no events to match
  skipping testing PMU breakpoint
  testing aliases PMU uncore_cbox_1: matched event unc_cbo_xsnp_response.miss_eviction
  testing PMU uncore_cbox_1 aliases: pass
  testing PMU power aliases: no events to match
  testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event bp_l1_btb_correct
  testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event bp_l2_btb_correct
  testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event segment_reg_loads.any
  testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event dispatch_blocked.any
  testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event eist_trans
  testing PMU cpu aliases: pass
  testing PMU intel_pt aliases: no events to match
  skipping testing PMU software
  skipping testing PMU intel_bts
  testing PMU uncore_imc aliases: no events to match
  testing aliases PMU uncore_cbox_0: matched event unc_cbo_xsnp_response.miss_eviction
  testing PMU uncore_cbox_0 aliases: pass
  testing PMU cstate_core aliases: no events to match
  skipping testing PMU tracepoint
  testing PMU msr aliases: no events to match

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.
