Add new rules for kernel PMU event.
Currently, the patch only want to handle the PMU event name as "a-b" and
"a".
event_pmu:
PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT sep_dc
|
PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE '-' PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF sep_dc
PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT token is for
cycles-ct/cycles-t/mem-loads/mem-stores.
The prefix cycles is mixed up with cpu-cycles. loads and stores are
mixed up with cache event So they have to be hardcode in lex.
PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE and PE_PMU_EVENT_SUF tokens are for other PMU events.
The lex looks generic identifier up in the table and return the matched
token. If there is no match, generic PE_NAME token will be return.
Using the rules, kernel PMU event could use new style format without //
so you can use:
perf record -e mem-loads ...
instead of:
perf record -e cpu/mem-loads/

This enables a PMU event to be specified in the form:
pmu//
which is effectively the same as:
pmu/config=0/
This patch is a precursor to defining default config for a PMU.
Further explanation extracted from lkml thread:
Imagine that the 'tsc' term did not exist.
Intel PT trace data would not contain TSC packets, and the decoder would
not know how to decode them.
Then imagine that a new version of the hardware adds 'tsc'.
It is such a useful feature that we want it by default, but older
versions of the tools don't know how to decode it, so the kernel cannot
turn it on by default.
It is similar to why the kernel does not select perf_event_attr.mmap2 by
default.
The kernel doesn't know whether the tool supports it.

Trace events potentially can have a '-' in their trace system name,
e.g. kvm on s390 defines kvm-s390:* tracepoints.
We could not parse them, because there was no rule for this:
$ sudo ./perf top -e "kvm-s390:*"
invalid or unsupported event: 'kvm-s390:*'
This patch adds an extra rule to event_legacy_tracepoint which handles
those cases. Without the patch, perf will not accept such tracepoints in
the -e option.

perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored
__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.
The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

Use command line string provided by the -e option to name events. This
way we get unique events names that also support pmu event syntax
(<pmu_name>/<config>/<modifier>). No need to reconstruct the name
anymore from its attributes. We use the event_desc of the header to
store the name in the perf.data header. Thus it is also available for
perf report.
Implemented by putting the parser in different states to parse events or
configs.
And since event names are now generated from the command line
specification. Update event names in test cases accordingly.

Adding support to update already defined event's attribute with
event modifier. This change will allow to use group modifier as
an update to the existing event modifiers.
Adding 'add' parameter to the parse_events__modifier_event function.
Calling it with 'add' = false/true, the event modifier is
initialized/updated respectively.
Added exclude_GH flag to evsel struct, because we need to remember
if one of 'GH' modifiers was used for event. The reason is that the
default settings for exclude_guest is 1 and during the group
modifier processing we have no other way of knowing if it was set
by default or by event modifier.
Keeping the current behaviour, that any event/group modifier reset
the defaults for exclude_host (0) and exclude_guest (1).

Adding scanner/parser bits to parse event groups.
The grammar for group is:
groups: groups ',' group | group
group: group_name '{' events '}' group_mod
group_name: name | empty
group_mod: ':' group_mods | empty
group_mods: event_mod
It's possible to use standard event modifier as a modifier
for group. It'll be used as an update to existing event
modifiers.
It's necessary to use quoting ("'\) when specifying group on
command line, since {} characters are interpreted by most of
the shells.
It is now possible to specify groups in event syntax like:
'{cycles,faults}'
- anonymous group
'group1{cycles,faults}
- group with name 'group1'
'{cycles,faults}:k
- anonymous group with event modifier 'k'
'{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}'
- two anonymous groups
The grouping functionality itself is coming shortly.

We want to reuse the event grammar for parsing aliased terms.
The obvious reason is we dont need to add new code when there's
already support for this in event grammar.
Doing this by adding terms and event start entries into event
parse grammar. The grammar forks on the begining based on the
starting token, which is supplied via bison interface into the
lexer. The lexer then returns the starting token as the first
token, thus making the grammar switch accordingly.
Currently 2 starting tokens/grammars are supported:
PE_START_TERMS, PE_START_EVENTS
The PE_START_TERMS related grammar uses 'event_config' part
of the grammar for term parsing.
