When event group is enabled for forked task (i.e. no target task/cpu
was specified) all events were disabled and marked ->enable_on_exec.
However they wouldn't be counted at all since only group leader will
be enabled on exec actually.
In contrast to perf stat, perf record doesn't have a real problem
as it enables all the event before proceeding. But it needs to be
fixed anyway IMHO.

When event group is enabled for forked task (i.e. no target task was
specified) all events were disabled and marked ->enable_on_exec.
However they are not counted at all since only group leader will be
enabled on exec actually. So the result looked like below:
$ ./perf stat --group -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
0.554926 task-clock # 0.001 CPUs utilized
<not counted> context-switches
<not counted> CPU-migrations
<not counted> page-faults
<not counted> cycles
<not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend
<not supported> stalled-cycles-backend
<not counted> instructions
<not counted> branches
<not counted> branch-misses
1.001228093 seconds time elapsed
Fix it by disabling group leader only.

Added new event rule to the event definition grammar:
event_def: event_pmu |
...
event_pmu: PE_NAME '/' event_config '/'
Using this rule, event could be now specified like:
cpu/config=1,config1=2,config2=3/u
where pmu name 'cpu' is looked up via following path:
${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}
and config options are bound to the pmu's format definiton:
${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/format
The hardcoded config options still stays and have precedence
over any format field defined with same name.

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

Adding a new rule to the event grammar to be able to specify
values of additional attributes of symbolic event.
The new syntax for event symbolic definition is:
event_legacy_symbol: PE_NAME_SYM '/' event_config '/' |
PE_NAME_SYM sep_slash_dc
event_config: event_config ',' event_term | event_term
event_term: PE_NAME '=' PE_NAME |
PE_NAME '=' PE_VALUE
PE_NAME
sep_slash_dc: '/' | ':' |
At the moment the config options are hardcoded to be used for legacy
symbol events to define several perf_event_attr fields. It is:
'config' to define perf_event_attr::config
'config1' to define perf_event_attr::config1
'config2' to define perf_event_attr::config2
'period' to define perf_event_attr::sample_period
Legacy events could be now specified as:
cycles/period=100000/
If term is specified without the value assignment, then 1 is
assigned by default.

Adding sysfs group 'format' attribute for pmu device that
contains a syntax description on how to construct raw events.
The event configuration is described in following
struct pefr_event_attr attributes:
config
config1
config2
Each sysfs attribute within the format attribute group,
describes mapping of name and bitfield definition within
one of above attributes.
eg:
"/sys/...<dev>/format/event" contains "config:0-7"
"/sys/...<dev>/format/umask" contains "config:8-15"
"/sys/...<dev>/format/usr" contains "config:16"
the attribute value syntax is:
line: config ':' bits
config: 'config' | 'config1' | 'config2"
bits: bits ',' bit_term | bit_term
bit_term: VALUE '-' VALUE | VALUE

Add rules to generate pre-processed files (just like are available for
the normal kernel build), and adjust the rule to create assembly files
from C ones to produce its output in the output directory rather than
in the source tree.
E.g.
$ make -C tools/perf/ O=/tmp/perf /tmp/perf/builtin-top.i
make: Entering directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
CC /tmp/perf/builtin-top.i
make: Leaving directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
$ wc -l /tmp/perf/builtin-top.i
31379 /tmp/perf/builtin-top.i

Current code has put_ioctx() called asynchronously from aio_fput_routine();
that's done *after* we have killed the request that used to pin ioctx,
so there's nothing to stop io_destroy() waiting in wait_for_all_aios()
from progressing. As the result, we can end up with async call of
put_ioctx() being the last one and possibly happening during exit_mmap()
or elf_core_dump(), neither of which expects stray munmap() being done
to them...
We do need to prevent _freeing_ ioctx until aio_fput_routine() is done
with that, but that's all we care about - neither io_destroy() nor
exit_aio() will progress past wait_for_all_aios() until aio_fput_routine()
does really_put_req(), so the ioctx teardown won't be done until then
and we don't care about the contents of ioctx past that point.
Since actual freeing of these suckers is RCU-delayed, we don't need to
bump ioctx refcount when request goes into list for async removal.
All we need is rcu_read_lock held just over the ->ctx_lock-protected
area in aio_fput_routine().

Have ioctx_alloc() return an extra reference, so that caller would drop it
on success and not bother with re-grabbing it on failure exit. The current
code is obviously broken - io_destroy() from another thread that managed
to guess the address io_setup() would've returned would free ioctx right
under us; gets especially interesting if aio_context_t * we pass to
io_setup() points to PROT_READ mapping, so put_user() fails and we end
up doing io_destroy() on kioctx another thread has just got freed...
