libperf: Move to tools/lib/perf

2020-01-06T14:46:09Z

Move libperf from its current location under tools/perf to a separate directory under tools/lib/. Also change various paths (mainly includes) to reflect the libperf move to a separate directory and add a new directory under MANIFEST.

libperf: Move 'page_size' global variable to libperf

2019-09-25T12:51:48Z

We need the 'page_size' variable in libperf, so move it there. Add a libperf_init() as a global libperf init function to obtain this value via sysconf() at tool start. Committer notes: Add internal/lib.h to tools/perf/ files using 'page_size', sometimes replacing util.h with it if that was the only reason for having util.h included.

libperf: Adopt the readn()/writen() functions from tools/perf

2019-07-29T21:34:46Z

Move the readn()/writen() functions into libperf. Keep those non-namespaced names because they will be shared only between perf and libperf. Again, these are not exported functions.
