perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host}
When no event is specified the tools use perf_evlist__add_default(), that will call event_attr_init to initialize the KVM exclusion bits. When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail specified. Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc}, .precise_ip, etc). That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set. I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG modifier: $ perf stat usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 0.942119 task-clock # 0.454 CPUs utilized 1 context-switches # 0.001 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 126 page-faults # 0.134 M/sec 693,193 cycles:HG # 0.736 GHz [40.11%] 407,461 stalled-cycles-frontend:HG # 58.78% frontend cycles idle [72.29%] 365,403 stalled-cycles-backend:HG # 52.71% backend cycles idle 465,982 instructions:HG # 0.67 insns per cycle # 0.87 stalled cycles per insn 89,760 branches:HG # 95.275 M/sec 6,178 branch-misses:HG # 6.88% of all branches 0.002077228 seconds time elapsed While if one explicitely specifies the same events, which will make the parsing code to be called and thus event_attr_init is called: $ perf stat -e task-clock,context-switches,migrations,page-faults,cycles,stalled-cycles-frontend,stalled-cycles-backend,instructions,branches,branch-misses usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 1.040349 task-clock # 0.500 CPUs utilized 2 context-switches # 0.002 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 127 page-faults # 0.122 M/sec 587,966 cycles # 0.565 GHz [13.18%] 459,167 stalled-cycles-frontend # 78.09% frontend cycles idle 390,249 stalled-cycles-backend # 66.37% backend cycles idle 504,006 instructions # 0.86 insns per cycle # 0.91 stalled cycles per insn 96,455 branches # 92.714 M/sec 6,522 branch-misses # 6.76% of all branches [96.12%] 0.002078681 seconds time elapsed Fix it by introducing a perf_evlist__add_default_attrs method that will call evlist_attr_init in all the perf_event_attr entries before adding the events.
