2020-02-05tools lib: Fix builds when glibc contains strlcpy()Vitaly Chikunov
commit 6c4798d3f08b81c2c52936b10e0fa872590c96ae upstream. Disable a couple of compilation warnings (which are treated as errors) on strlcpy() definition and declaration, allowing users to compile perf and kernel (objtool) when: 1. glibc have strlcpy() (such as in ALT Linux since 2004) objtool and perf build fails with this (in gcc): In file included from exec-cmd.c:3: tools/include/linux/string.h:20:15: error: redundant redeclaration of ‘strlcpy’ [-Werror=redundant-decls] 20 | extern size_t strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size); 2. clang ignores `-Wredundant-decls', but produces another warning when building perf: CC util/string.o ../lib/string.c:99:8: error: attribute declaration must precede definition [-Werror,-Wignored-attributes] size_t __weak strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size) ../../tools/include/linux/compiler.h:66:34: note: expanded from macro '__weak' # define __weak __attribute__((weak)) /usr/include/bits/string_fortified.h:151:8: note: previous definition is here __NTH (strlcpy (char *__restrict __dest, const char *__restrict __src, Committer notes: The #pragma GCC diagnostic directive was introduced in gcc 4.6, so check for that as well.

2015-12-16perf tools: Move strlcpy() from perf to tools/lib/string.cJosh Poimboeuf
strlcpy() will be needed by the subcmd library. Move it to the shared tools/lib/string.c file which can be used by other tools.

2015-11-18tools: Clone the kernel's strtobool functionWang Nan
Copying it to tools/lib/string.c, the counterpart to the kernel's lib/string.c. This is preparation for enhancing BPF program configuration, which will allow config string like 'inlines=yes'.

2015-11-18tools: Adopt memdup() from tools/perf, moving it to tools/lib/string.cArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
That will contain more string functions with counterparts, sometimes verbatim copies, in the kernel.
