perf stat: Collapse identically named events
The uncore PMU has a lot of duplicated PMUs for different subsystems. When expanding an uncore alias we usually end up with a large number of identically named aliases, which makes perf stat output difficult to read. Automatically sum them up in perf stat, unless --no-merge is specified. This can be default because only the uncores generally have duplicated aliases. Other PMUs have unique names. Before: % perf stat --no-merge -a -e unc_c_llc_lookup.any sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 694,976 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 706,304 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 956,608 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 782,720 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 605,696 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 442,816 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 659,328 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 509,312 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 263,936 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 592,448 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 672,448 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 608,640 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 641,024 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 856,896 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 808,832 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 684,864 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 710,464 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 538,304 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 1.002577660 seconds time elapsed After: % perf stat -a -e unc_c_llc_lookup.any sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 2,685,120 Bytes unc_c_llc_lookup.any 1.002648032 seconds time elapsed v2: Split collect_aliases.
