The test attr suite is run only if it's run under perf source directory,
or tests are found in installed path.
Otherwise tests are omitted (notification is displayed) and finished as
successful.

The idea is run perf session with kidnapping sys_perf_event_open
function. For each sys_perf_event_open call we store the perf_event_attr
data to the file to be checked later against what we expect.
You can run this by:
$ python ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -v
v2 changes:
- preserve errno value in the hook
