perf build: Handle slang being in /usr/include and in /usr/include/slang/

2019-06-18T20:48:12+00:00

In some distros slang.h may be in a /usr/include 'slang' subdir, so use
the if slang is not explicitely disabled (by using NO_SLANG=1) and its
feature test for the common case (having /usr/include/slang.h) failed,
use the results for the test that checks if it is in slang/slang.h.

Change the only file in perf that includes slang.h to use
HAVE_SLANG_INCLUDE_SUBDIR and forget about this for good.

On a rhel6 system now we have:

  $ /tmp/build/perf/perf -vv | grep slang
                libslang: [ on  ]  # HAVE_SLANG_SUPPORT
  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep libslang
  	libslang.so.2 => /usr/lib64/libslang.so.2 (0x00007fa2d5a8d000)
  $ grep slang /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-libslang=0
  feature-libslang-include-subdir=1
  $ cat /etc/redhat-release
  CentOS release 6.10 (Final)
  $

While on fedora:29:

  $ /tmp/build/perf/perf -vv | grep slang
                libslang: [ on  ]  # HAVE_SLANG_SUPPORT
  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep slang
  	libslang.so.2 => /lib64/libslang.so.2 (0x00007f8eb11a7000)
  $ grep slang /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-libslang=1
  feature-libslang-include-subdir=1
  $
  $ cat /etc/fedora-release
  Fedora release 29 (Twenty Nine)
  $

The feature-libslang-include-subdir=1 line is because the 'gettid()'
test was added to test-all.c as the new glibc has an implementation for
that, so we soon should have it not failing, i.e. should be the common
case soon. Perhaps I should move it out till it becomes the norm...

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]# nm /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.bin | grep -w gettid
                   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

perf cs-etm: Add support for multiple traceID queues

2019-06-10T18:50:02+00:00

When operating in CPU-wide trace mode with a source/sink topology of N:1
packets with multiple traceID will end up in the same cs_etm_queue.  In
order to properly decode packets they need to be split in different
queues, i.e one queue per traceID.

As such add support for multiple traceID per cs_etm_queue by adding a
new cs_etm_traceid_queue every time a new traceID is discovered in the
trace stream.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main kernel changes were:

   - add support for Intel's "adaptive PEBS v4" - which embedds LBS data
     in PEBS records and can thus batch up and reduce the IRQ (NMI) rate
     significantly - reducing overhead and making call-graph profiling
     less intrusive.

   - add Intel CPU core and uncore support updates for Tremont, Icelake,

   - extend the x86 PMU constraints scheduler with 'constraint ranges'
     to better support Icelake hw constraints,

   - make x86 call-chain support work better with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y

   - misc other changes

  Tooling changes:

   - updates to the main tools: 'perf record', 'perf trace', 'perf
     stat'

   - updated Intel and S/390 vendor events

   - libtraceevent updates

   - misc other updates and fixes"

tools build: Add -ldl to the disassembler-four-args feature test

2019-05-02T20:00:20+00:00

Thomas Backlund reported that the perf build was failing on the Mageia 7
distro, that is because it uses:

  cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-disassembler-four-args.make.output
  /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libbfd.a(plugin.o): in function `try_load_plugin':
  /home/iurt/rpmbuild/BUILD/binutils-2.32/objs/bfd/../../bfd/plugin.c:243:
  undefined reference to `dlopen'
  /usr/bin/ld:
  /home/iurt/rpmbuild/BUILD/binutils-2.32/objs/bfd/../../bfd/plugin.c:271:
  undefined reference to `dlsym'
  /usr/bin/ld:
  /home/iurt/rpmbuild/BUILD/binutils-2.32/objs/bfd/../../bfd/plugin.c:256:
  undefined reference to `dlclose'
  /usr/bin/ld:
  /home/iurt/rpmbuild/BUILD/binutils-2.32/objs/bfd/../../bfd/plugin.c:246:
  undefined reference to `dlerror'
  as we allow dynamic linking and loading

Mageia 7 uses these linker flags:
  $ rpm --eval %ldflags
    -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--build-id -Wl,--enable-new-dtags

So add -ldl to this feature LDFLAGS.

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.
