On the architectures with perf memory profiling, two types of hardware
events have been supported: load and store; if want to profile memory
for both load and store operations, the tool will use these two events
at the same time, the usage is:
# perf mem record -t load,store -- uname
But this cannot be applied for AUX tracing event, the same PMU event can
be used to only trace memory load, or only memory store, or trace for
both memory load and store.
This patch introduces a new event PERF_MEM_EVENTS__LOAD_STORE, which is
used to support the event which can record both memory load and store
operations, thus a new type option "ldst" is added:
# perf mem record -t ldst -- uname
