package/linux-tools: add support for pcitest tool

2018-11-13T19:58:05+00:00

Add support for selection and compiling the pcitest tool on buildroot. This tool is available to be compiled since kernel 4.20. Signed-off-by: Gustavo Pimentel Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

linux: automatically set CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS when perf is enabled

2018-07-04T19:52:11+00:00

Perf profiling cannot be used if CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is not enabled in the kernel configuration. Similar to other tools, like ktap, we can enable the right options automatically. Signed-off-by: Jan Heylen Signed-off-by: Thomas De Schampheleire Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

linux-tools: perf: add option to build TUI

2018-04-28T13:17:53+00:00

Since Linux 3.10, perf's NO_NEWT configuration option simply sets NO_SLANG=1 and there is no dependency on libnewt. We already handle NO_SLANG correctly based on whether or not BR2_PACKAGE_SLANG is selected, so all we accomplish by setting NO_NEWT=1 is disabling perf's TUI when all of the dependencies are available. To simplify all of this, introduce a new config option to enable the perf TUI which depends on slang and add a check to prevent building the TUI on versions which are too old. The check for NO_SLANG is equivalent to checking if NO_NEWT is required as NO_SLANG was added in the same commit that removed the libnewt dependency and deprecated NO_NEWT (6692c262df4f, "perf tools: Remove dependency on libnewt", 2013-03-28).

package/linux-tools: fixes build of iio with 4.14+ kernels

2017-12-12T06:29:34+00:00

Since Linux kernel commit [1], the build of the iio tool has been changed to use the common Linux tools build system. The installation directory is now given by DESTDIR, like for all other Linux tools. We keep the INSTALL_DIR environment in the 'install' target to be compatible with kernels older than 4.14.

linux-tools/perf: fix build for MIPS by using the right emulation on LD

2017-10-23T16:42:27+00:00

Passing just the endianness flag to LD is not enough. We need to pass the right emulation flag which will set everything for us, not only the endianness. Signed-off-by: Vicente Olivert Riera Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind)

package/linux-tools: add support for building tmon

Signed-off-by: Markus Mayer [Thomas: - tweak Config.in help text as provided by Markus - adjust commit log - add missing select BR2_PACKAGE_NCURSES - add missing dependency on host-pkgconf, used by the tmon Makefile to find ncurses - add logic to disable -fstack-protector when the toolchain doesn't have SSP support.] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

package/linux-tools: change method for including linux-tool sub-makefiles

2017-07-19T19:16:38+00:00

Make inclusion ordering of all linux-tool-*.mk sub-makefiles explicit instead of relying on alphabetical sort order. This is done by renaming the Linux tools sub-makefiles to the format linux-tool-*.mk.in. This causes the top-level Makefile to ignore the Linux tools sub-makefiles. Until now, the main Makefile included all linux-tool-*.mk files, as well as linux-tools.mk, and it relied on alphabetical sorting to include them in the proper order (linux-tool-*.mk before linux-tools.mk).

linux-tools: use the new gettext logic

2017-07-04T23:28:45+00:00

This commit switches to use the new gettext logic, which involves: - using TARGET_NLS_DEPENDENCIES instead of hand-encoded dependencies on gettext/host-gettext - using TARGET_NLS_LIBS to force linking against libintl - dropping BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT selection. The BR2_USE_WCHAR dependency was only needed for gettext, so it is no longer needed. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni
