    perf jevents: Add a new expression builtin strcmp_cpuid_str() · 9d5da30e
    James Clark authored
    This will allow writing formulas that are conditional on a specific
    CPU type or CPU version. It calls through to the existing
    strcmp_cpuid_str() function in Perf which has a default weak version,
    and an arch specific version for x86 and arm64.
    
    The function takes an 'ID' type value, which is a string. But in this
    case Arm CPU IDs are hex numbers prefixed with '0x'. metric.py
    assumes strings are only used by event names, and that they can't start
    with a number ('0'), so an additional change has to be made to the
    regex to convert hex numbers back to 'ID' types.
