<content type='text'>
Changing the contents of the FEATURE-DUMP file, so it looks like:

  feature-backtrace=1
  feature-dwarf=0
  feature-fortify-source=1
  feature-sync-compare-and-swap=0

This way it could get included in sub projects, so they won't be forced
to redo features detection.

Also now storing the complete set of features.

The feature_assign macro generates feature value
assignment for name, like:

  $(call feature_assign,dwarf) == feature-dwarf=1

This will be used more in following patches.

<title>tools build feature: Move dwarf post unwind choice output into perf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:76ee2ff342743e57cb6dc059d0aba90e0c4c9bfc</id>
<content type='text'>
We decide what dwarf unwind to choose way after the Makefile.feature
makefile is included. The $(dwarf-post-unwind) is not even set at that
time. For the same reason it was never included in FEATURE-DUMP file.

Moving it into perf VF=1 verbose display.

  $ make VF=1
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build
  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...
  ...                 LIBUNWIND_DIR:
  ...                     LIBDW_DIR:
  ...     DWARF post unwind library: libunwind
  ...

<title>tools build: Fix feature Makefile issues with 'O='</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1925459b4d92d92e62d67ddc763cda650d2aa79c</id>
<content type='text'>
When building perf binaries outside the source tree with 'make O=&lt;dir&gt;',
the auto-detected features get re-tested for every build, which is
unnecessary and inconsistent with the behavior seen when building
directly in the source tree.

Another issue is that 'make O=&lt;dir&gt; clean' doesn't remove the feature
files from the object tree.

Fix these problems by looking for the binaries in the $(OUTPUT)
directory.

<title>perf build: Remove unnecessary line in Makefile.feature</title>

This line always silently fails because it doesn't add the 'test-'
prefix to the .bin file.

And it seems to be unnecessary anyway: the line immediately after it
does all the individual feature checks.

<title>perf tools: Make perf depend on libbpf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ed63f34c026e9a60d17fa750ecdfe3f600d49393</id>
<content type='text'>
By adding libbpf into perf's Makefile, this patch enables perf to build
libbpf if libelf is found and neither NO_LIBELF nor NO_LIBBPF is set.

The newly introduced code is similar to how libapi and libtraceevent
are wired into Makefile.perf.

MANIFEST is also updated for 'make perf-*-src-pkg'.

Append make_no_libbpf to tools/perf/tests/make.

The 'bpf' feature check is appended into default FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY, so perf will check the API version of bpf in
/path/to/kernel/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h. Which should not fail except
when we are trying to port this code to an old kernel.

Error messages are also updated to notify users about the lack of BPF
support in 'perf record' if libelf is missing or the BPF API check
failed.

tools/lib/bpf is added to TAG_FOLDERS to allow us to navigate libbpf
files when working on perf using tools/perf/tags.

<title>tools build: Allow setting the feature detection user</title>

<content type='text'>
We will use the tools/build/ autodetection in the eBPF patchkit
and it is currently sharing the output directory with perf, that
also uses the feature detection logic.

As we keep state in the output directory, so that we can avoid running
all the tests again, we need to have different filenames for the files
used in this state, allow doing that via the FEATURE_USER variable, to
be set alongside the existing FEATURE_{TEST,DISPLAY} variables.

v2: Fix comment describing the FEATURE_DUMP filename to make sure where
    it is created, precisely at $(OUTPUT)FEATURE-DUMP$(FEATURE_USER).

Cut'n'paste mistake, it should eval the name of the function
defined right next to it, in the next line, fix it.

Before:

  $ make -C tools/lib/bpf/
  make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/lib/bpf'

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...             libelf-getphdrnum: [ on  ]

  ...                           bpf: [ on  ]
  &lt;SNIP&gt;

After:

  $ make -C tools/lib/bpf/

<title>tools build: Add test for presence of __get_cpuid() gcc builtin</title>

<content type='text'>
The auxtrace code needed by Intel PT uses the __get_cpuid() gcc builtin,
that is not present in old systems, breaking the build.

Add a test to check for that builtin and disable AUXTRACE in those
systems.

  [acme@rhel5 linux]$  make NO_LIBPERL=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j2' parallel build

  Auto-detecting system features:
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  ...                          lzma: [ on  ]
  ...                     get_cpuid: [ OFF ]
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  config/Makefile:630: Your gcc lacks the __get_cpuid() builtin, disables support for auxtrace/Intel PT, please install a newer gcc
    MKDIR    /tmp/build/perf/util/
  &lt;SNIP&gt;

This fixes the build on old systems such as RHEL/CentOS 5.11.
