Description: A library to program the performance monitoring events

 Libpfm4 helps convert from an event name, expressed as a string, to

 the event encoding. The encoding can then be used with specific OS

 interfaces. Libpfm4 also provides OS-specific interfaces to directly

 setup OS-specific data structures to be passed to the kernel. The

 current libpfm4, for instance, provides support for the perf_events

 interface which was introduced in Linux v2.6.31.

Description: Python bindings for libpfm4

 This package allows you to write simple python scripts that monitor

 various hardware performance monitoring events. It may be more efficient

 to use this approach instead of parsing the output of other tools.
