2016-03-10T19:33:19+00:00

Build jitdump only on architectures defined in util/genelf.h file, to avoid breaking the build on such arches.

perf tools: Add ARM64 perf_regs_load to support libunwind and enable testing

2015-05-29T15:43:40+00:00

Newest libunwind does support ARM64, and perf is able to utilize it also. This patch enables the perf test dwarf unwind for arm64.

perf build: Add arch x86 objects building

2015-02-12T16:12:01+00:00

Move the x86 arch objects building under build framework to be included in the libperf build object. Adding also arch/$(ARCH)/Build files for the rest of the archs. The reason for this is that in arch/Build we now do: +libperf-y += $(ARCH)/ which would make the build to fail on other architectures, because the build framework requires 'Build' file in nested directories and this patch adds it only for x86.

perf tools: Fix build breakage on arm64 targets

2014-10-01T17:44:17+00:00

Attempting to build the perf tool for an arm64 target results in the following failure: arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c: In function 'libunwind__arch_reg_id': arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c:77:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'pr_err' pr_err("unwind: invalid reg id %d\n", regnum); ^ arch/arm64/util/unwind-libunwind.c:77:3: error: nested extern declaration of 'pr_err' This is due to commit 84f5d36f4866 ("perf tools: Move pr_* debug macros into debug object") moving the pr_* macros into a new header file, but failing to update architectures other than x86. This patch adds the missing include, and fixes the build again.

perf tools ARM64: Wire up perf_regs and unwind support

2014-04-29T13:31:19+00:00

This patch hooks in the perf_regs and libunwind code for ARM64. The tools/perf/arch/arm64 is created; it contains the arch specific code for DWARF unwinding.
