tools build feature: Use CC and CXX from parent

2020-08-21T11:05:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit e3232c2f39acafd5a29128425bc30b9884642cfa ]

commit c8c188679ccf ("tools build: Use the same CC for feature detection
and actual build") changed these assignments from unconditional (:=) to
conditional (?=) so that they wouldn't clobber values from the
environment. However, conditional assignment does not work properly for
variables that Make implicitly sets, among which are CC and CXX. To
quote tools/scripts/Makefile.include, which handles this properly:

  # Makefiles suck: This macro sets a default value of $(2) for the
  # variable named by $(1), unless the variable has been set by
  # environment or command line. This is necessary for CC and AR
  # because make sets default values, so the simpler ?= approach
  # won't work as expected.

In other words, the conditional assignments will not run even if the
variables are not overridden in the environment; Make will set CC to
"cc" and CXX to "g++" when it starts[1], meaning the variables are not
empty by the time the conditional assignments are evaluated. This breaks
cross-compilation when CROSS_COMPILE is set but CC isn't, since "cc"
gets used for feature detection instead of the cross compiler (and
likewise for CXX).

To fix the issue, just pass down the values of CC and CXX computed by
the parent Makefile, which gets included by the Makefile that actually
builds whatever we're detecting features for and so is guaranteed to
have good values. This is a better solution anyway, since it means we
aren't trying to replicate the logic of the parent build system and so
don't risk it getting out of sync.

Leave PKG_CONFIG alone, since 1) there's no common logic to compute it
in Makefile.include, and 2) it's not an implicit variable, so
conditional assignment works properly.

tools build: Add capability-related feature detection

2019-08-12T20:14:14+00:00

Add utilities to help checking capabilities of the running procss.  Make
perf link with libcap, if it is available. If no libcap-dev[el], assume
no capabilities.

Committer testing:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build

  Auto-detecting system features:
  
  ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
  ...                        libcap: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]

tools build: Fix the zstd test in the test-all.c common case feature test

2019-06-18T21:44:24+00:00

We were renanimg 'main' to 'main_zstd' but then using 'main_libzstd();'
in the main() for test-all.c, causing this:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  test-all.c: In function ‘main’:
  test-all.c:236:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘main_test_libzstd’; did you mean ‘main_test_zstd’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    main_test_libzstd();
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    main_test_zstd
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
  $

I.e. what was supposed to be the fast path feature test was _always_
failing, duh, fix it.

tools build: Add test to check if slang.h is in /usr/include/slang/

2019-06-18T20:43:35+00:00

A few odd old distros (rhel5, 6, yeah, lots of those out in use, in many
cases we want to use upstream perf on it) have the slang header files in
/usr/include/slang/, so add a test that will be performed only when
test-all.c (the one with the most common sane settings) fails, either
because we're in one of these odd distros with slang/slang.h or because
something else failed (say libelf is not present).

So for the common case nothing changes, no additional test is performed.

Next step is to check in perf the result of these tests.

perf tools: Don't hardcode host include path for libslang

2019-06-17T18:57:20+00:00

Hardcoding /usr/include/slang is fundamentally incompatible with cross
compilation and will lead to the inability for a cross-compiled
environment to properly detect whether slang is available or not.

If /usr/include/slang is necessary that is a distribution specific
knowledge that could be solved with either a standard pkg-config .pc
file (which slang has) or simply overriding CFLAGS accordingly, but the
default perf Makefile should be clean of all of that.

tools build: Check if gettid() is available before providing helper

2019-06-17T18:57:19+00:00

Laura reported that the perf build failed in fedora when we got a glibc
that provides gettid(), which I reproduced using fedora rawhide with the
glibc-devel-2.29.9000-26.fc31.x86_64 package.

Add a feature check to avoid providing a gettid() helper in such
systems.

On a fedora rawhide system with this patch applied we now get:

  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# grep gettid /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-gettid=1
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.make.output
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.bin

                   U gettid@@GLIBC_2.30
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]#

While on a fedora:29 system:

  [acme@quaco perf]$ grep gettid /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-gettid=0
  [acme@quaco perf]$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.make.output

tools build: Implement libzstd feature check, LIBZSTD_DIR and NO_LIBZSTD defines

2019-04-01T18:18:10+00:00

Implement libzstd feature check, NO_LIBZSTD and LIBZSTD_DIR defines to
override Zstd library sources or disable the feature from the command
line:

  $ make -C tools/perf LIBZSTD_DIR=/path/to/zstd/sources/ clean all
  $ make -C tools/perf NO_LIBZSTD=1 clean all

Auto detection feature status is reported just before compilation
starts.  If your system has some version of the zstd library
preinstalled then the build system finds and uses it during the build.

If you still prefer to compile with some other version of zstd library
you have capability to refer the compilation to that version using
LIBZSTD_DIR define.

Because `OCSD_INSTR_WFI_WFE` case was added only in v0.11.0, the minimum
required OpenCSD library version for this patch is no longer v0.10.0.

perf build: Check what binutils's 'disassembler()' signature to use

2019-03-20T19:42:10+00:00

Commit 003ca0fd2286 ("Refactor disassembler selection") in the binutils
repo, which changed the disassembler() function signature, so we must
use the feature test introduced in fb982666e380 ("tools/bpftool: fix
bpftool build with bintutils >= 2.9") to deal with that.

Committer testing:

After adding the missing function call to test-all.c, and:

  FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-disassembler-four-args = -bfd -lopcodes

And the fallbacks for cases where we need -liberty and sometimes -lz to
tools/perf/Makefile.config, we get:

  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'

Time to move on to the patches that make use of this disassembler()
