This patch fixes a bug in the filter_events() function.
The patch fixes the bug whereby if some mappings did not
exist, e.g., STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND, then any event after it
in the attrs array would disappear from the published list of
events in /sys/devices/cpu/events. This could be verified
easily on any system post SNB (which do not publish
STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND):
$ ./perf stat -e cycles,ref-cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
1,217,348 cycles
<not supported> ref-cycles
The problem is that in filter_events() there is an assumption
that the argument (attrs) is organized in increasing continuous
event indexes related to the event_map(). But if we remove the
non-supported events by shifing the position in the array, then
the lookup x86_pmu.event_map() needs to compensate for it, otherwise
we are looking up the wrong index. This patch corrects this problem
by compensating for the deleted events and with that ref-cycles
reappears (here shown on Haswell):
$ perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
4,525,910 ref-cycles
1,064,920 cycles
0.002943888 seconds time elapsed
