Subject: [PATCH v2 22/30] perf pmu: Add perf_pmu__for_each_name_from_config()
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 11:53:27 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113195335.2865725-23-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113195335.2865725-1-irogers@google.com>

perf_pmu__name_from_config() returns the first event alias of a PMU
whose parsed config matches, ignoring the perf_event_attr type. So a
legacy hardware event alias can be returned for a raw config of the
same value, only one of possibly several names is found, and the names
of legacy events whose aliases were replaced by sysfs or json events of
the same name can't be found.

Add perf_pmu__for_each_name_from_config() that calls a callback for
each event name of a PMU whose encoding has a given type and config,
ignoring the extended PMU type of legacy encodings and, for core PMUs,
also searching the legacy hardware and cache event tables. Make
perf_pmu__name_from_config() return the first such name for the PMU's
type.
