Parsing repetitive tokens across multiple patterns

I need to parse following patterns using bison and flex and retrieve the data and store to list.
There are total 9 patterns, so there will 9 lists to store the corresponding values. I am able to parse all patterns.
However, I need to add lots of flags as tokens are repetitive and used across patterns.
Also within patterns same token is repeated multiple times. I think there can be a better way to do this.




e.g. for token INTEGER, the code in bison parser file is


INTEGER:
if(pattern1)
{
if(flag1)
{
}
if(flag2)
{
}
.
.
.
}


if(flag3)
{


}


if(pattern2)
{


}


Sample Pattern
efg @main(%data: r[(1, 2, 4, 4), float32], %param_1: or[(2, 1, 5, 5),
float32], %param_2: or[(20), float32], %param_3: or[(5, 2, 5, 5), float32],
%param_4: or[(50), float32], %param_5: or[(50, 80), float32], %param_6:
Tensor[(50), float32], %param_7: or[(10, 50), float32], %param_8: or[(20),
float32]


Code:


efg @main(%data: r[(1, 2, 4, 4), float32], %param_1: or[(2, 1, 5, 5),
float32], %param_2: or[(20), float32], %param_3: or[(5, 2, 5, 5), float32],
%param_4: or[(50), float32], %param_5: or[(50, 80), float32], %param_6:
Tensor[(50), float32], %param_7: or[(10, 50), float32], %param_8: or[(20),
float32]


{
Pattern1
Pattern2
Pattern3
Pattern1
Pattern2
Pattern3
Pattern4
Pattern5
Pattern2
Pattern8
Pattern4
Pattern5
Pattern6
Pattern7
}


Pattern1 to Pattern8 are similar to Sample Pattern.
Any suggestions are welcome.

[My inclination would be to write one set of productions that can match any of the
patterns and use code in the actions to check that it matches the specific pattern
needed. The action code can always call yyerror() to say there's a syntax error.
