perf stat: Add transaction flag (-T) support for s390
The 'perf stat' command line flag -T to display transaction counters is currently supported for x86 only. Add support for s390. It is based on the metrics flag -M transaction using the architecture dependent JSON files. This requires a metric named "transaction" in the JSON files for the platform. Introduce a new function metricgroup__has_metric() to check for the existence of a metric_name transaction. As suggested by Andi Kleen, this is the new approach to support transactions counters. Other architectures will follow. Output before: [root@p23lp27 perf]# ./perf stat -T -- sleep 1 Cannot set up transaction events [root@p23lp27 perf]# Output after: [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf stat -T -- ~/mytesttx 1 >/tmp/111 Performance counter stats for '/root/mytesttx 1': 1 tx_c_tend # 13.0 transaction 1 tx_nc_tend 11 tx_nc_tabort 0 tx_c_tabort_special 0 tx_c_tabort_no_special 0.001070109 seconds time elapsed [root@s35lp76 perf]# Suggested-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180626071701.58190-1-tmricht@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
