So for now there's no need for a pmu-event.l, I'm fine with the code
as-is. The issue for using regular expressions is that we need to
compile (regcomp) then use them (regexec), and in this new code the
result of the parsing is discarded - perhaps we can save on some
compiling with a 1 element cache, let's wait to see performance data
saying it is an issue. If we were to compile the regular expressions
at build time with flex then the runtime cost, any caching, etc. is
unnecessary.
Hope this makes sense. Thanks,
Ian
