Both static and dynamic tests needs to link with libapi.a, because it's
using its functions. Also include path for libapi includes.

Move perf_mmap__consume() vrom tools/perf to libperf and export it in
the perf/mmap.h header.

Move also the needed helpers perf_mmap__write_tail(),
perf_mmap__read_head() and perf_mmap__empty().

Guenter Roeck reported problem with compilation when the ARCH is
specified:

  $ make ARCH=x86_64
  In file included from tools/include/asm/atomic.h:6:0,
                   from include/linux/atomic.h:5,

  fatal error: asm/cmpxchg.h: No such file or directory

The problem is that we don't use SRCARCH (the sanitized ARCH version)
and we don't get the proper include path.

<title>libperf: Add build version support</title>

<id>47f9bccc79cb067103ad5e9790e0d01c94839429</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a shared library version, generating the following files:

  $ ll tools/perf/lib/libperf.so*
  libperf.so -&gt; libperf.so.0.0.1
  libperf.so.0 -&gt; libperf.so.0.0.1
  libperf.so.0.0.1

Committer testing:

One has to build just libbperf to get this, building perf so far doesn't
trigger this, i.e. I tried:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf

And the files above were not created, so one has to do:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/lib/
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/lib'
    LINK     /tmp/build/perf/libperf.so.0.0.1
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/lib'
  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/*.so.*
  lrwxrwxrwx. 1 acme acme    16 Jul 22 15:37 /tmp/build/perf/libperf.so.0 -&gt; libperf.so.0.0.1
  -rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 16368 Jul 22 15:37 /tmp/build/perf/libperf.so.0.0.1
  $

Add a shared library version, generating the following files:

  $ ll tools/perf/lib/libperf.so*
  libperf.so -&gt; libperf.so.0.0.1
  libperf.so.0 -&gt; libperf.so.0.0.1
  libperf.so.0.0.1

Committer testing:

One has to build just libbperf to get this, building perf so far doesn't
trigger this, i.e. I tried:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf

And the files above were not created, so one has to do:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/lib/
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/lib'
    LINK     /tmp/build/perf/libperf.so.0.0.1
  make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/lib'
  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/*.so.*

Add an empty libperf.a under tools/perf/lib and link it with perf.

It can also be built separately with:

  $ cd tools/perf/lib &amp;&amp; make
    CC       core.o
    LD       libperf-in.o
    AR       libperf.a
    LINK     libperf.so

Committer notes:

Need to add -I$(srctree)/tools/arch/$(ARCH)/include/uapi
-I$(srctree)/tools/include/uapi to tools/perf/lib/Makefile's INCLUDE
variable to pick up the latest versions of kernel headers, even in older
systems, this is in line with what is in tools/lib/bpf/Makefile.
