perf tools: Use pmus to describe type from attribute
When dumping a perf_event_attr, use pmus to find the PMU and its name by the type number. This allows dynamically added PMUs to be described. Before: $ perf stat -vv -e data_read true ... perf_event_attr: type 24 size 136 config 0x20ff sample_type IDENTIFIER read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING disabled 1 inherit 1 exclude_guest 1 ... After: $ perf stat -vv -e data_read true ... perf_event_attr: type 24 (uncore_imc_free_running_0) size 136 config 0x20ff sample_type IDENTIFIER read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING disabled 1 inherit 1 exclude_guest 1 ... However, it also means that when we have a PMU name we prefer it to a hard coded name: Before: $ perf stat -vv -e faults true ... perf_event_attr: type 1 (PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE) size 136 config 0x2 (PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS) sample_type IDENTIFIER read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING disabled 1 inherit 1 enable_on_exec 1 exclude_guest 1 ... After: $ perf stat -vv -e faults true ... perf_event_attr: type 1 (software) size 136 config 0x2 (PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS) sample_type IDENTIFIER read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING disabled 1 inherit 1 enable_on_exec 1 exclude_guest 1 ... It feels more consistent to do this, rather than only prefer a PMU name when a hard coded name isn't available.
