perf session: Add e_flags to the e_machine helper

2026-02-03T21:01:27+00:00

Allow e_flags as well as e_machine to be computed using the e_machine helper. This isn't currently used, the argument is always NULL, but it will be used for a new header feature.

perf kvm: Wire up e_machine

2026-02-03T21:01:27+00:00

Pass the e_machine to the kvm functions so that they aren't just wired to EM_HOST. In the case of a session move some setup until the session is created. As the session isn't fully running the default EM_HOST is returned as no e_machine can be found in a running machine. This is, however, some marginal progress to cross platform support.

perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch directory

2026-02-03T21:01:27+00:00

`perf kvm stat` supports record and report options. By using the arch directory a report for a different machine type cannot be supported. Move the kvm-stat code out of the arch directory and into util/kvm-stat-arch following the pattern of perf-regs and dwarf-regs. Avoid duplicate symbols by renaming functions to have the architecture name within them. For global variables, wrap them in an architecture specific function. Selecting the architecture to use with `perf kvm stat` is selected by EM_HOST, ie no different than before the change. Later the ELF machine can be determined from the session or a header feature (ie EM_HOST at the time of the record). The build and #define HAVE_KVM_STAT_SUPPORT is now redundant so remove across Makefiles and in the build. Opportunistically constify architectural structs and arrays.

perf kvm: Move functions used in util out of builtin

2024-12-18T19:24:32+00:00

The util library code is used by the python module but doesn't have access to the builtin files. Make a util/kvm-stat.c to match the kvm-stat.h file that declares the functions and move the functions there.
