The struct read_format, which denotes the returned values on a read
states that the values are u64 and not long long which is used for
struct unpacking.
Therefore the 'q' long long formatter was exchanged with 'Q' which is
the format for u64 data.

All initializations of the ctypes struct that don't need additional
information were moved to its init method. The unneeded
initializations for sample_type and sample_period were removed as they
do not affect the counters that are read.
This improves readability of the setup_event_attribute by halfing its
LOC.

The key names in log mode were capped to 10 characters which is not
enough for distinguishing between keys. Capping was therefore removed.
In batch mode the spacing between keys and values was too narrow and
therefore had to be extended to 42.

The tui function itself had a few sub-functions and therefore
basically already was class-like. Making it an actual one with proper
methods improved readability.
The curses wrapper was dropped in favour of __entry/exit__ methods
that implement the same behaviour.
Also renamed single character variable name, so the name reflects the
content.

Introduced separating newlines for readability and removed special
treatment/variable of the group leader. Renamed fmt to read_format.
The group leader's file descriptor will not be turned into a file
object anymore, instead os.read is used to read from the descriptor.

Converted class definition to new style and renamed improper named
variables.
Introduced property for fields_filter.
Moved member variable declaration to init, so one can see all class
variables when reading the init method.
Completely clear the values dict, as we don't need to keep single values.

The variable was only used in one class but still was defined
globally. Additionaly the detect_platform routine which prepares the
data that goes into the variable was called on each start of the
script, no matter if the class was needed.
To make the variable local to the TracepointProvider class, a new
function that calls detect_platform and returns the filters was
introduced.

Variables with bad names like f and m were renamed to their full name,
so it is clearer which data they contain.
Unneeded variables were removed and the field generating code was
moved in an own function.
dict.iteritems() was removed as directly iterating over a dictionary
also yields the needed keys.

As previous commit authors used a mixture of setters/getters and
direct access to class variables consolidating them the python way
improved readability.
Properties allow us to assign a value to a class variable through a
setter without the need to call the setter ourselves.

s390 machines can also be detected via uname -m, i.e. python's
os.uname, no need for more complicated checks.
Calling uname once and saving its value for multiple checks is
perfectly sufficient. We don't expect the machine's architecture to
change when the script is running anyway.
On multi-cpu systems x86_init currently will get called multiple
times, returning makes sure we don't waste cicles on that.

As num cpus * 1000 is NOT a sensible rlimit, we need to calculate a
more accurate rlimit.
The number of open files is directly dependent on the cpu count and on
the number of trace points per cpu. A additional constant works as a
buffer for files that are needed by python or do get opened when the
script runs.
Hence we have:
cpus * traces + constant

In 2008 a patch was written that introduced ctypes.get_errno() and
set_errno() as official interfaces to the libc errno variable. Using
them we can avoid accessing private libc variables.
The patch was included in python 2.6.
Also we need to raise the right exception, with the right parameters
and a helpful message.

The main function should be the main location for initialization and
helps encapsulating variables into a scope. This way they don't have
to be global and might be mistaken for local ones.
As the providers variable is scoped now it can't be accessed from
within the Stats class. Hence, the global access to the variable was
changed to a local one.

Access checking with F_OK was replaced with the better readable
os.path.exists().
On Linux exists() returns False when the user doesn't have sufficient
permissions for statting the directory. Therefore the error message
now states that sufficient rights are needed when the check fails.
Also added check for /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/.

The exit reasons dictionaries were defined number -> value but later
on were accessed the other way around. Therefore a invert function
inverted them.
Defining them the right way removes the need to invert them and
therefore also speeds up the script's setup process.
