perf tools: Add a simple expression parser for JSON
Add a simple expression parser good enough to parse JSON relation expressions. The parser is implemented using bison. This is just intended as an simple parser for internal usage in the event lists, not the beginning of a "perf scripting language" v2: Use expr__ prefix instead of expr_ Support multiple free variables for parser Committer note: The v2 patch had: %define api.pure full In expr.y, that is a feature introduced in bison 2.7, to have reentrant parsers, not using global variables, which would make tools/perf stop building with the bison version shipped in older distros, so Andi realised that the other parsers (e.g. parse-events.y) were using: %pure-parser Which is present in older versions of bison and fits the bill. I added: CFLAGS_expr-bison.o += -DYYENABLE_NLS=0 -DYYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL=0 -w To finally make it build, copying what was there for pmu-bison.o, another parser.
