perf stat: Support regex pattern in --for-each-cgroup
To make the command line even more compact with cgroups, support regex pattern matching in cgroup names. $ perf stat -a -e cpu-clock,cycles --for-each-cgroup ^foo sleep 1 3,000.73 msec cpu-clock foo # 2.998 CPUs utilized 12,530,992,699 cycles foo # 7.517 GHz (100.00%) 1,000.61 msec cpu-clock foo/bar # 1.000 CPUs utilized 4,178,529,579 cycles foo/bar # 2.506 GHz (100.00%) 1,000.03 msec cpu-clock foo/baz # 0.999 CPUs utilized 4,176,104,315 cycles foo/baz # 2.505 GHz (100.00%) 1.000892614 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201027072855.655449-2-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
