If not, tell the user that:

  config/Makefile:273: Old libdw.h, finding variables at given 'perf probe' point will not work, install elfutils-devel/libdw-dev &gt;= 0.157

And return -ENOTSUPP in die_get_var_range(), failing features that
need it, like the one pointed out above.

This fixes the build on older systems, such as Ubuntu 12.04.5.

<title>perf build: Fix feature-dump checks, we need to test all features</title>

<content type='text'>
I see problem with test-all case speedup, because it does not
comprise checks for 32bits compilations, fix it.

The problem could be noticed by calling:

  make -C tools/perf feature-dump

That would end up misdetecting the feature-compile-x32, that, building
using 'gcc -mx32' needs stub headers not present in a fedora 23 devel
machine and thus fail to compile, but ended up appearing as detected,
i.e. present in tools/perf/FEATURE-DUMP as 'feature-compile-x32=1'.

With this fix it correctly appears as 'feature-compile-x32=0' and if we
uninstall the libc devel files for 32 bits (glibc-devel.i686), then the
relevant variable is flipped from 'feature-compile-32=1' to
'feature-compile-32=0'.

The same things happened for bionic and libbabeltrace, that were
misdetected because the are no tested in test-all.c

Put feature checkers not in original FEATURE_TESTS to a new list and
allow subproject select all feature checkers by setting FEATURE_TESTS to
'all'.

<title>tools build feature: Use value assignment form for FEATURE-DUMP file</title>

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.

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

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]

  ...     DWARF post unwind library: libunwind

<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.

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.
