    perf annotate: Introduce alternative method of keeping instructions table · 2a1ff812
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
    Some arches may want to dynamically populate the table using regular
    expressions on the instruction names to associate them with a set of
    parsing/formatting/etc functions (struct ins_ops), so provide a fallback
    for when the ins__find() method fails.
    
    That fall back will be able to resize the arch->instructions, setting
    arch->nr_instructions appropriately, helper functions to associate an
    ins_ops to an instruction name, growing the arch->instructions if needed
    and resorting it are provided, all the arch specific callback needs to
    do is to decide if the missing instruction should be added to
    arch->instructions with a ins_ops association.
