[PATCHv3 0/4] perf tools: Add support for user defined metric

[Jiri Olsa]

hi,
Joe asked for possibility to add user defined metrics. Given that
we already have metrics support, I added --metrics-file option that
allows to specify custom metrics.

  $ cat metrics
  # IPC
  mine1 = instructions / cycles;
  /* DECODED_ICACHE_UOPS% */
  mine2 = 100 * (idq.dsb_uops / \ (idq.ms_uops + idq.mite_uops + idq.dsb_uops + lsd.uops));

  $ sudo perf stat --metrics-file ./metrics -M mine1,mine2 --metric-only -a -I 1000
  #           time       insn per cycle                mine1                mine2
       1.000536263                0.71                   0.7                 41.4
       2.002069025                0.31                   0.3                 14.1
       3.003427684                0.27                   0.3                 14.8
       4.004807132                0.25                   0.2                 12.1
  ...

v3 changes:
  - added doc for metrics file in perf stat man page
  - reporting error line number now
  - changed '#' style comment to C way with '//'

v2 changes:
  - add new --metrics-file option
  - rebased on current perf/core expression bison/flex enhancements
