perf parse-events: Fix propagation of term's no_value when cloning
The no_value field in 'struct parse_events_term' indicates that the val variable isn't used, the case for an event name. Cloning wasn't propagating this, making cloned event name terms appearing to have a constant assinged to them. Working around the bug would check for a value of 1 assigned to value, but then this meant a user value of 1 couldn't be differentiated causing the value to be lost in debug printing and perf list. The change fixes the cloning and updates the "val.num ==/!= 1" tests to use no_value instead. To better check the no_value is set appropriately parameter comments are added for constant values. This found that no_value wasn't set correctly in parse_events_multi_pmu_add, which matters now that no_value is used to indicate an event name. Fixes: 7a6e91644708d514 ("perf parse-events: Make common term list to strbuf helper") Fixes: 99e7138eb7897aa0 ("perf tools: Fail on using multiple bits long terms without value") Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Tested-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: James Clark <james.clark@arm.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230831071421.2201358-4-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
