perf tools: Move config/Makefile into Makefile.config

2016-08-02T19:33:28+00:00

There's no reason to keep it in separate directory now when we moved out
the rest of the files.

tools: Copy linux/{hash,poison}.h and check for drift

2016-07-18T21:41:50+00:00

We were also using this directly from the kernel sources, the two last
cases, fix it.

tools: Copy the bitops files accessed from the kernel and check for drift

2016-07-18T21:33:41+00:00

perf build: Add sdt feature detection

2016-07-14T02:09:09+00:00

This checks whether sys/sdt.h is available or not, which is required for
DTRACE_PROBE().

We can disable this feature by passing NO_SDT=1 when building.

This flag will be used for SDT test case and further SDT events in
perftools.

tools: Copy the header files needed by perf tools

2016-07-12T18:20:36+00:00

Those kernel files were being directly accessed, which we're not
allowing anymore to avoid that changes in the kernel side break tooling.

Warn if these copies drift from the original files.

tools: Copy uapi/linux/hw_breakpoint.h from the kernel

2016-07-12T18:20:34+00:00

To allow the build to complete on older systems, where those files are
either not uptodate, lacking some recent additions or not present at
all.

And check if the copy drifts from the kernel.

perf bench: Copy kernel files needed to build mem{cpy,set} x86_64 benchmarks

2016-07-12T18:20:32+00:00

We can't access kernel files directly from tools/, so copy the required
bits, and make sure that we detect when the original files, in the
kernel, gets modified.

tools: Add copy of perf_event.h to tools/include/linux/

2016-07-12T18:20:31+00:00

We shouldn't use headers from the kernel sources directly, instead we
should use the system's headers or in cases where that isn't possible,
like with perf_event.h, where the introduction of kernel features such
as perf_event_attr.{write_backwards,sample_max_stack} and
PERF_EVENT_IOC_PAUSE_OUTPUT take some time to become available in
/usr/include/linux/perf_event.h we need a copy.

Do it and check for source code drift, emitting a warning when changes
are detected.

perf tools: Let python use correct gcc for build_ext

2016-06-22T19:11:42+00:00

Currently, python uses host gcc instead of cross-compile gcc in the last
step of compiling build_ext(remove '--quiet' to show verbose):

  cross-gcc ...
  cross-gcc ...
  creating ~/out/python_ext_build/lib
  gcc -pthread -shared -Wl,-z ...

This is wrong but may not cause any errors unless the features detected
by cross-compiler do not match those for host compiler, and causes the
following errors:

  /usr/lib64/gcc/bin/ld: cannot find -lunwind-x86
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
  cp: cannot stat ‘~/out/python_ext_build/lib/perf.so’: No such file or directory
  Makefile.perf:257: recipe for target '~/out/python/perf.so' failed
  make[1]: *** [~/out/python/perf.so] Error 1
  Makefile:68: recipe for target 'all' failed
  make: *** [all] Error 2

This issue is also reported and anwsered on stackoverflow.
