      perf tools: Add perf pmu object to access pmu format definition · cd82a32e
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Adding pmu object which provides interface to pmu's sysfs
      event format definition located at:
        ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/format
      
      Following interface is exported:
        struct perf_pmu* perf_pmu__find(char *name);
        - this function returns pmu object, which is then
          passed as a handle to other interface functions
      
        int perf_pmu__config(struct perf_pmu *pmu, struct perf_event_attr *attr,
                             struct list_head *head_terms);
        - this function configures perf_event_attr struct based
          on pmu's format definitions and config terms data,
          containined in head_terms list.
      
      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
