    perf pmu: Parse sysfs events directly from a file · edb217ff
    Ian Rogers authored
    Rather than read a sysfs events file into a 256 byte char buffer, pass
    the FILE* directly to the lex/yacc parser.
    
    This avoids there being a maximum events file size.
    
    While changing the API, constify some arguments to remove unnecessary
    casts.
    
    Allocating the read buffer decreases the performance of pmu-scan by
    around 3%.
