perf tools: Add missing object file to the python binding linkage list (2016-10-26 19:08:43 -0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

New features:

- Support matching by topic in 'perf list' (Andi Kleen)

User visible:

- Apply cpu color only when there was activity in 'perf sched map' (Namhyung Kim)

- Always show the task's COMM in 'perf sched map -v' (Namhyung Kim)

- Fix hierarchy column counts in the perf hist browser (top, report), avoiding
showing nothing after pressing the RIGHT key a number of times (Namhyung Kim)

Infrastructure:

- Support cascading options in libsubcmd and use it to share common options in
'perf sched' subcommands (Namhyung Kim)

- Avoid worker cacheline bouncing in 'perf bench futex' (Davidlohr Bueso)

- Sanitize numeric parameters in 'perf bench futex' (Davidlohr Bueso)

- Update copies of kernel files (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix scripting (perl, python) setup to avoid leaks (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Add missing object file to the python binding linkage list (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Andi Kleen (1):
perf list: Support matching by topic

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo (6):
perf bench mem: Ignore export.h related changes to mem{cpy,set}.S
tools: Update asm-generic/mman-common.h copy from the kernel
perf tools: Update x86's syscall_64.tbl, adding pkey_(alloc,free,mprotect)
perf scripting: Avoid leaking the scripting_context variable
perf scripting: Don't die if scripting can't be setup, disable it
perf tools: Add missing object file to the python binding linkage list

Davidlohr Bueso (2):
perf bench futex: Avoid worker cacheline bouncing
perf bench futex: Sanitize numeric parameters

Namhyung Kim (6):
perf hist browser: Fix hierarchy column counts
tools lib subcmd: Suppport cascading options
perf sched: Make common options cascading
perf sched map: Apply cpu color when there's an activity
perf sched map: Always show task comm with -v
perf tools: Introduce timestamp_in_usec()
