Parser generator is used to retrive the pmu's format definition. The generated parser is part of the patch. Added makefile rule 'pmu-parser' to generate the parser code out of the bison/flex sources. Added builtin test 'Test perf pmu format parsing', which could be run like: perf test pmu Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-errz96u1668gj9wlop1zhpht@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
