Athira Rajeev cf26e043c2 perf vendor events power10: Add JSON metric events to present CPI stall cycles in powerpc
Power10 Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) provides events to understand
stall cycles of different pipeline stages.  These events along with
completed instructions provides useful metrics for application tuning.

Patch implements the JSON changes to collect counter statistics to
present the high level CPI stall breakdown metrics. New metric group is
named as "CPI_STALL_RATIO" and this new metric group presents these
stall metrics:

- DISPATCHED_CPI ( Dispatch stall cycles per insn )
- ISSUE_STALL_CPI ( Issue stall cycles per insn )
- EXECUTION_STALL_CPI ( Execution stall cycles per insn )
- COMPLETION_STALL_CPI ( Completition stall cycles per insn )

To avoid multipling of events, PM_RUN_INST_CMPL event has been modified
to use PMC5(performance monitoring counter5) instead of PMC4. This
change is needed, since completion stall event is using PMC4.

Usage example:

 ./perf stat --metric-no-group -M CPI_STALL_RATIO <workload>

 Performance counter stats for 'workload':

    63,056,817,982      PM_CMPL_STALL                    #     0.28 COMPLETION_STALL_CPI
 1,743,988,038,896      PM_ISSUE_STALL                   #     7.73 ISSUE_STALL_CPI
   225,597,495,030      PM_RUN_INST_CMPL                 #     6.18 DISPATCHED_CPI
                                                  #    37.48 EXECUTION_STALL_CPI
 1,393,916,546,654      PM_DISP_STALL_CYC
 8,455,376,836,463      PM_EXEC_STALL

"--metric-no-group" is used for forcing PM_RUN_INST_CMPL to be scheduled
in all group for more accuracy.

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.
