perf stat: Add mean, min, max and last --tpebs-mode options
Add command line configuration option for how retirement latency events are combined. The default "mean" gives the average of retirement latency. "min" or "max" give the smallest or largest retirment latency times respectively. "last" uses the last retirment latency sample's time. Committer notes: Enclose parse_tpebs_mode() under HAVE_ARCH_X86_64_SUPPORT to match the ifdef block where it is used, fixing the build in systems like: 20 5.60 debian:experimental-x-mips : FAIL gcc version 14.2.0 (Debian 14.2.0-1) builtin-stat.c:2330:12: error: 'parse_tpebs_mode' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] 2330 | static int parse_tpebs_mode(const struct option *opt, const char *str, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reviewed-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Tested-by: Weilin Wang <weilin.wang@intel.com> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alexandre Torgue <alexandre.torgue@foss.st.com> Cc: Andreas Färber <afaerber@suse.de> Cc: Caleb Biggers <caleb.biggers@intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Manivannan Sadhasivam <manivannan.sadhasivam@linaro.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Maxime Coquelin <mcoquelin.stm32@gmail.com> Cc: Perry Taylor <perry.taylor@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Falcon <thomas.falcon@intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250414174134.3095492-15-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
