tools lib traceevent: Remove libtraceevent

2022-12-14T14:16:12+00:00

libtraceevent is now out-of-date and it is better to depend on the system version. Remove this code that is no longer depended upon by any builds. Committer notes: Removed the removed tools/lib/traceevent/ from tools/perf/MANIFEST, so that 'make perf-tar-src-pkg' works.

perf build: Install libsymbol locally when building

2022-11-16T15:17:15+00:00

The perf build currently has a '-Itools/lib' on the CC command line. This causes issues as the libapi, libsubcmd, libtraceevent, libbpf and libsymbol headers are all found via this path, making it impossible to override include behavior. Change the libsymbol build mirroring the libbpf, libsubcmd, libapi, libperf and libtraceevent build, so that it is installed in a directory along with its headers. A later change will modify the include behavior. Don't build kallsyms.o as part of util as this will lead to duplicate definitions. Add kallsym's directory to the MANIFEST rather than individual files, so that the Build and Makefile are added to a source tar ball.

perf MANIFEST: Add bpftool files to allow building with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1

2021-11-07T18:39:28+00:00

We need bpftool and required kernel/bpf/disasm.[ch] to bootstrap the cgroups, bperf and other BPF skels used by perf. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

tools lib: Adopt list_sort() from the kernel sources

2021-10-20T13:30:59+00:00

Add list_sort.[ch] from the main kernel tree. The linux/bug.h #include is removed due to conflicting definitions. Add check-headers and modify perf build accordingly. MANIFEST and python-ext-sources fixes suggested by Arnaldo.

scripts/bpf: Abstract eBPF API target parameter

2021-03-05T02:39:45+00:00

Abstract out the target parameter so that upcoming commits, more than just the existing "helpers" target can be called to generate specific portions of docs from the eBPF UAPI headers.

libperf: Move to tools/lib/perf

2020-01-06T14:46:09+00:00

Move libperf from its current location under tools/perf to a separate directory under tools/lib/. Also change various paths (mainly includes) to reflect the libperf move to a separate directory and add a new directory under MANIFEST.

libbpf: Fix up generation of bpf_helper_defs.h

2019-11-28T00:52:31+00:00

$ make -C tools/perf build-test does, ends up with these two problems: make[3]: *** No rule to make target '/tmp/tmp.zq13cHILGB/perf-5.3.0/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h', needed by 'bpf_helper_defs.h'. Stop. make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:757: /tmp/tmp.zq13cHILGB/perf-5.3.0/tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a] Error 2 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Because $(srcdir) points to the /tmp/tmp.zq13cHILGB/perf-5.3.0 directory and we need '/tools/ after that variable, and after fixing this then we get to another problem: /bin/sh: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/scripts/bpf_helpers_doc.py: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [Makefile:184: bpf_helper_defs.h] Error 127 make[3]: *** Deleting file 'bpf_helper_defs.h' LD /tmp/build/perf/libapi-in.o make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:778: /tmp/build/perf/libbpf.a] Error 2 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Because this requires something outside the tools/ directories that gets collected into perf's detached tarballs, to fix it just add it to tools/perf/MANIFEST, which this patch does, now it works for that case and also for all these other cases.

tools lib: Move argv_{split,free} from tools/perf/util/

2019-07-02T01:50:40+00:00

This came from the kernel lib/argv_split.c, so move it to tools/lib/argv_split.c, to get it closer to the kernel structure. We need to audit the usage of argv_split() to figure out if it is really necessary to do have one allocation per argv[] entry, looking at one of its users I guess that is not the case and we probably are even leaking those allocations by not using argv_free() judiciously, for later. With this we further remove stuff from tools/perf/util/, reducing the perf specific codebase and encouraging other tools/ code to use these routines so as to keep the style and constructs used with the kernel.

tools perf: Move from sane_ctype.h obtained from git to the Linux's original

2019-06-26T00:02:47+00:00

We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've copied. This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(), etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/ and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements are made to the original code. Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.
