perf build: Check LLVM version in feature check

2016-12-06T16:21:55+00:00

Cancel builtin llvm and clang support when LLVM version is less than 3.9.0: following commits uses newer API. Since Clang/LLVM's API is not guaranteed to be stable, add a test-llvm-version.cpp feature checker, issue warning if LLVM found in compiling environment is not tested yet. Committer Notes: Testing it: Environment: $ cat /etc/fedora-release Fedora release 25 (Twenty Five) $ rpm -q llvm-devel clang-devel llvm-devel-3.8.0-1.fc25.x86_64 clang-devel-3.8.0-2.fc25.x86_64 $ Before: $ make -k LIBCLANGLLVM=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build Warning: tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h differs from kernel Warning: tools/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel INSTALL GTK UI LINK /tmp/build/perf/perf /tmp/build/perf/libperf.a(libperf-in.o): In function `perf::createCompilerInvocation(llvm::SmallVector, llvm::StringRef&, clang::DiagnosticsEngine&)': /home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/c++/clang.cpp:56: undefined reference to `clang::tooling::newInvocation(clang::DiagnosticsEngine*, llvm::SmallVector const&)' /tmp/build/perf/libperf.a(libperf-in.o): In function `perf::getModuleFromSource(llvm::SmallVector, llvm::StringRef, llvm::IntrusiveRefCntPtr)': /home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/c++/clang.cpp:68: undefined reference to `clang::CompilerInstance::CompilerInstance(std::shared_ptr, bool)' /home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf/util/c++/clang.cpp:69: undefined reference to `clang::CompilerInstance::createDiagnostics(clang::DiagnosticConsumer*, bool)' After: Makefile.config:807: No suitable libLLVM found, disabling builtin clang and llvm support. Please install llvm-dev(el) (>= 3.9.0) Updating the environment to a locally built LLVM 4.0 + clang 3.9 (forgot to git pull, duh) combo, all works as expected, it is properly detected and built into the resulting perf binary.

tools build: Move tabs to spaces where suitable

2016-12-05T19:06:03+00:00

We've been hit several times by a Makefile bug where line indented by tab was falsely considered as target command. We prevent this by always using space indentation for everything except for the target commands.

tools build: Add feature detection for clang

2016-12-05T18:51:43+00:00

Check if basic clang compiling environment is ready. Doesn't like 'llvm-config --libs' which can returns llvm libraries in right order and duplicates some libraries if necessary, there's no correspondence for clang libraries (-lclangxxx). to avoid extra complexity and to avoid new clang breaking libraries ordering, use --start-group and --end-group. In this test case, manually identify required clang libs and hope it to be stable. Putting all clang libraries here is possible (use make's wildcard), but then feature checking becomes very slow.

tools build: Add feature detection for LLVM

2016-12-05T18:51:42+00:00

Check if basic LLVM compiling environment is ready. Use llvm-config to detect include and library directories. Avoid using 'llvm-config --cxxflags' because its result contain some unwanted flags like --sysroot (if LLVM is built by yocto). Use '?=' to set LLVM_CONFIG, so explicitly passing LLVM_CONFIG to make would override it. Use 'llvm-config --libs BPF' to check if BPF backend is compiled in. Since now BPF bytecode is the only required backend, no need to waste time linking llvm and clang if BPF backend is missing. This also introduce an implicit requirement that LLVM should be new enough. Old LLVM doesn't support BPF backend.

tools build: Add jvmti feature detection support

2016-11-14T15:40:32+00:00

Adding support to detect jvmti support. It is not plugged into the FEATURE_TESTS machinery, because it's quite rare and will be used separately from perf via feature_check call.

tools build: Add feature detection for g++

2016-10-05T22:59:35+00:00

Check if g++ is available. The result will be used by builtin clang and LLVM support. Since LLVM requires C++11, this feature detector checks std::move().

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.

perf tools: Add feature detection for gelf_getnote()

2016-07-12T18:20:41+00:00

That is not present on some libelf implementations, such as the one used in Alpine Linux: libelf-0.8.13. This ends up disabling the SDT code, that relies on this function. One alternative would be to provide an weak fallback implementation or the open coded variant used by the buildid sysfs notes reading code.

perf build: Add feature detection for libelf's elf_getshdrstrndx()

2016-07-04T22:38:59+00:00

That appeared after 0.140, and will be used in the SDT code, so, to avoid bisection break on older systems, add a feature detection and provide a stub with a pr_debug() to keep it building.

perf build: Add build-test for debug-frame on arm/arm64

2016-05-11T15:24:58+00:00

Debug-frame for remote platforms is not related to the host platform, so we should test each platform separately.
