      tools perf: Do not check spaces/blank lines when checking header file copy drift · 470de0f3
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      We copy headers from include/, arch/ to allow tools/ use defines,
      structs from newer kernels and still be able to build on older systems.
      
      We then, as part of a build, check if those copies got out of sync, when
      we emit a warning, so that we can check if something needs to be
      reflected on the tools, e.g. a 'perf trace' syscall argument beautifier
      needs tweaking.
      
      But we don't have to be super strict with that, for instance, extra
      spaces, tabs or blank lines aren't problematic, so change
      check-headers.sh to have "--ignore-blank-lines --ignore-space-change" as
      default "diff" arguments.

      tools include uapi: Grab a copy of asm-generic/ioctls.h · 6375f0ab
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      So that we can build on older systems where otherwise we would end up
      with:
      
          CC       /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/ioctl.o
        trace/beauty/ioctl.c: In function 'ioctl__scnprintf_tty_cmd':
        trace/beauty/ioctl.c:25:17: error: 'TIOCGEXCL' undeclared (first use in this function)
        trace/beauty/ioctl.c:25:17: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
        trace/beauty/ioctl.c:25:2: error: array index in initializer not of integer type
        trace/beauty/ioctl.c:25:2: error: (near initialization for 'ioctl_tty_cmd')
      
      This way we can build a tool on an older system and it will still be
      capable of processing perf.data files generated on newer systems.

      tools headers: Fixup tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h copy of kernel ABI header · d62c1d72
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      In 2be7e212 ("bpf: add bpf_skb_adjust_room helper") BPF_ADJ_ROOM_NET was
      added to include/uapi/linux/bpf.h but BPF_ADJ_ROOM_NET_OPS was added to
      tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h, making these files differ, fix it by using the
      same name in both, BPF_ADJ_ROOM_NET, the one in the kernel headers copy.

      tools headers: Sync kernel ABI headers with tooling headers · a40f6177
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Sync up (copy) the following v4.13 kernel headers to the tooling headers:
      
        arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h:
        arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h:
        arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h:
        arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h:
      
         - KVM ABI extensions, which do not affect perf tooling
      
        arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h:
        arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h:
      
         - New PCID CPU feature on Intel CPUs - does not affect tooling.
      
      I.e. no real changes were needed to resolve the build warnings, just a plain copy
      of the latest kernel header version.

      perf build: Clarify open-coded header version warning message · 8255e1ef
      Ingo Molnar authored
      In this patch we changed the header checks:
      
        perf build: Clarify header version warning message
      
      Unfortunately the header checks were copied to various places and thus the message got
      out of sync. Fix some of them here.
      
      Note that there's still old, misleading messages remaining in:
      
        tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
        tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: orc_types.h differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
      
      here objtool copied the perf message, plus:
      
       tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/Build: || echo "Warning: Intel PT: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
      
      here the PT code regressed over the original message and only emits a vague warning
      instead of specific file names...
      
      All of this should be consolidated into tools/Build/ and used in a consistent
      manner.

      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.14-20170728' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
      
      Pull perf/core improvements and fixes for 4.14 from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
      
      New features:
      
       - Add PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN and PERF_RECORD_MMAP[2] to 'perf data' CTF
         conversion, allowing CTF trace visualization tools to show callchains
         and to resolve symbols (Geneviève Bastien)
      
      Improvements:
      
       - Use group read for event groups in 'perf stat', reducing overhead when
         groups are defined in the event specification, i.e. when using {} to
         enclose a list of events, asking them to be read at the same time,
         e.g.: "perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}'" (Jiri Olsa)
      
      Fixes:
      
       - Do not overwrite perf_sample->weight in 'perf annotate' when
         processing samples, use whatever came from the kernel when
         perf_event_attr.sample_type has PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT set or just handle
         its default value, 0, when that is not set and "weight" is one of the
         sort orders chosen (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
       - 'perf annotate --show-total-period' fixes:
          - TUI should show period, not nr_samples
          - Set appropriate column width for period/percent
          - Fix the column header to show "Period" when when that is what
            is being asked for
         (Taeung Song, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
       - Use default sort if evlist is empty, fixing pipe mode (David Carrillo-Cisneros)

      perf jvmti: Fix linker error when libelf config is disabled · 5d90faf4
      Sudeep Holla authored
      When libelf is disabled in the configuration, we get the following
      linker error:

        ld: cannot find -lelf
        Makefile.perf:515: recipe for target 'libperf-jvmti.so' failed
      
      Jiri pointed out that both librt and libelf are not really required. So
      this patch fixes the linker error by getting rid of unwanted libraries
      in the linker stage.

      perf tools: Add EXCLUDE_EXTLIBS and EXTRA_PERFLIBS to makefile · cb281fea
      David Carrillo-Cisneros authored
      The goal is to allow users to override linking of libraries that
      were automatically added to PERFLIBS.
      
      EXCLUDE_EXTLIBS contains linker flags to be removed from LIBS
      while EXTRA_PERFLIBS contains linker flags to be added.
      
      My use case is to force certain library to be build statically,
      e.g. for libelf:
      
        EXCLUDE_EXTLIBS=-lelf EXTRA_PERFLIBS=path/libelf.a
