SubjectRe: [PATCH] perf tool: Carve out ctype.h et al

Yeah, so roughly speaking, we want to carve out the code which opens and
handles events in perf tool so that we can use it in other tools. In the
particular example with the ras daemon, we want to be able to open a
tracepoint in userspace and read from it.

We're doing this piecewise because perf tool changes too fast and I've
done a full conversion patchset a couple of times already only to
realize that it grows obsolete practically only days after sending it
out. (Btw, for that it is all your fault, of course :-P). Which makes
preparing a full patchset almost impossible.

Does this explanation make sense?

@jirka: I'll try to reproduce your build error.

Thanks.
