2020-02-05tools lib: Fix builds when glibc contains strlcpy()Vitaly Chikunov1-0/+8
commit 6c4798d3f08b81c2c52936b10e0fa872590c96ae upstream. Disable a couple of compilation warnings (which are treated as errors) on strlcpy() definition and declaration, allowing users to compile perf and kernel (objtool) when: 1. glibc have strlcpy() (such as in ALT Linux since 2004) objtool and perf build fails with this (in gcc): In file included from exec-cmd.c:3: tools/include/linux/string.h:20:15: error: redundant redeclaration of ‘strlcpy’ [-Werror=redundant-decls] 20 | extern size_t strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size); 2. clang ignores `-Wredundant-decls', but produces another warning when building perf: CC util/string.o ../lib/string.c:99:8: error: attribute declaration must precede definition [-Werror,-Wignored-attributes] size_t __weak strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size) ../../tools/include/linux/compiler.h:66:34: note: expanded from macro '__weak' # define __weak __attribute__((weak)) /usr/include/bits/string_fortified.h:151:8: note: previous definition is here __NTH (strlcpy (char *__restrict __dest, const char *__restrict __src, Committer notes: The #pragma GCC diagnostic directive was introduced in gcc 4.6, so check for that as well.

2016-08-18tools lib: Reinstate strlcpy() header guard with __UCLIBC__Vineet Gupta1-1/+5
perf tools build in recent kernels spews splat when cross compiling with uClibc: | CC util/alias.o | In file included from tools/perf/util/../ui/../util/cache.h:8:0, | from tools/perf/util/../ui/helpline.h:7, | from tools/perf/util/debug.h:8, | from arch/../util/cpumap.h:9, | from arch/../util/env.h:5, | from arch/common.h:4, | from arch/common.c:3: | tools/include/linux/string.h:12:15: warning: redundant redeclaration of ‘strlcpy’ [-Wredundant-decls] | extern size_t strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size); ^ This is after commit 61a6445e463a31 ("tools lib: Guard the strlcpy() header with __GLIBC__"). The problem is uClibc also defines __GLIBC__ for exported headers for applications. So add that specific check to not trip for uClibc.

2016-07-12tools lib: Guard the strlcpy() header with __GLIBC__Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+1
Better to whitelist it for libraries that require it (glibc) than blacklist it with the ones that don't (uclibc, musl libc, etc).

2016-07-12tools: Introduce str_error_r()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+2
The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else. But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine Linux, where musl libc is used. So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is returned.

2015-12-16perf tools: Move strlcpy() from perf to tools/lib/string.cJosh Poimboeuf1-0/+4
strlcpy() will be needed by the subcmd library. Move it to the shared tools/lib/string.c file which can be used by other tools.

2015-11-18tools: Clone the kernel's strtobool functionWang Nan1-0/+2
Copying it to tools/lib/string.c, the counterpart to the kernel's lib/string.c. This is preparation for enhancing BPF program configuration, which will allow config string like 'inlines=yes'.

That will contain more string functions with counterparts, sometimes verbatim copies, in the kernel.
