[PATCH 10/11] perf scripts python: Add a python library EventClass.py

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Aug 08 2012 - 13:14:09 EST


From: Feng Tang <feng.tang@xxxxxxxxx>

This library defines several class types for perf events which could
help to better analyze the event samples. Currently there are just a few
classes, PerfEvent is the base class for all perf events, PebsEvent is
a HW base Intel x86 PEBS event, and user could add more SW/HW event
classes based on requriements.
