John Garry 9c880c24cb perf metricgroup: Fix for metrics containing duration_time 
Metrics containing duration_time cause a segfault:

  $ perf stat -v -M L1D_Cache_Fill_BW sleep 1
  Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-3D-4
  metric expr 64 * l1d.replacement / 1000000000 / duration_time for L1D_Cache_Fill_BW
  found event duration_time
  found event l1d.replacement
  adding {l1d.replacement}:W,duration_time
  l1d.replacement -> cpu/umask=0x1,(null)=0x1e8483,event=0x51/
  Segmentation fault
  $

In commit c2337d6719 ("perf metricgroup: Fix metrics using aliases
covering multiple PMUs"), the logic in find_evsel_group() when iter'ing
events was changed to not only select events in same group, but also for
aliased PMUs.

Checking whether events were for aliased PMUs was done by comparing the
event PMU name. This was not safe for duration_time event, which has no
associated PMU (and no PMU name), so fix by checking if the event PMU name
is set also.

Committer testing:

Reproduced the bug, then, on a:

  $ grep -m1 ^'model name' /proc/cpuinfo
  model name	: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz
  $

We now get:

  $ perf stat -M L1D_Cache_Fill_BW sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

               4,141      l1d.replacement:u
       1,001,285,107 ns   duration_time:u

         0.000000000 seconds user
         0.001119000 seconds sys

  $

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
