perf tools: Initial python binding
First clarifying that this kind of binding is not a replacement or an
equivalent to the 'perf script' way of using python with perf.
The 'perf script' way is to process events and look at a given script
for some python function that matches the events to pass each event for
processing.
This is a python module, i.e. everything is driven from the python
script, that merely uses "import perf" or "from perf import".
perf script is focused on tracepoints, this binding is focused on profiling as
an initial target. More work is needed to make available tracepoint specific
variables as event variables accessible via this binding.
There is one example of such usage model, in
tools/perf/python/twatch.py, a tool to watch "cycles" events together
with task (fork, exit) and comm perf events.
For now, due to me not being able to grok how python distutils cope with
building C extensions outside the sources dir the install target just
builds it, I'm using it as:
[root@emilia linux]# export PYTHONPATH=~acme/git/build/perf/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6/
[root@emilia linux]# tools/perf/python/twatch.py

The first 8 mmap events in this 8 way machine are a mistery that is still being
investigated.
More of the tools/perf/util/ APIs will be exposed via this python binding as
the need arises. For now the focus is on creating events and processing them,
symbol resolution is an obvious next step, with tracepoint variables as a close
second step.

perf python: Filter out -specs=/a/b/c from the python binding cc options
The -spec=/path/to/file can be used to change what gcc puts in the cc,
ld, etc command lines, but this is not present in clang, filter it out
at the setup.py file by changing python2's internal variable where it
keeps its initial CFLAGS value.
With this all of perf can be built in at least Fedora 25, fixing this
problem:
GEN /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so
CC /tmp/build/perf/builtin-buildid-list.o
clang-4.0: error: argument unused during compilation: '-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]
clang-4.0: error: argument unused during compilation: '-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]
error: command 'clang' failed with exit status 1
Now I need to change all the containers where I have clang to build
perf with it, so that we can check that in other distros (opensuse, debian,
ubuntu, etc) this also works.
