2025-08-20rtla: Check pkg-config installTao Chen1-0/+8
The tool pkg-config used to check libtraceevent and libtracefs, if not installed, it will report the libs not found, even though they have already been installed. Before: libtraceevent is missing. Please install libtraceevent-dev/libtraceevent-devel libtracefs is missing. Please install libtracefs-dev/libtracefs-devel After: Makefile.config:10: *** Error: pkg-config needed by libtraceevent/libtracefs is missing on this system, please install it.

2025-03-04rtla: Add optional dependency on BPF toolingTomas Glozar1-0/+42
If tooling required for building BPF CO-RE skeletons is present (that is, libbpf, clang with BPF CO-RE support, and bpftool), turn on HAVE_BPF_SKEL flag. Those requirements are similar to what perf requires, with the difference of using system libbpf and bpftool instead of in-tree versions. rtla can be forcefully built without BPF skeleton support by setting BUILD_BPF_SKEL=0 manually; in that case, a warning is displayed.

If libcpupower is present, set HAVE_LIBCPUPOWER_SUPPORT macro to allow features depending on libcpupower in rtla. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20241017140914.3200454-3-tglozar@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Tomas Glozar <tglozar@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2024-07-17tools/rtla: Use pkg-config in lib_setup of Makefile.configGuilherme Amadio1-1/+2
This allows to build against libtraceevent and libtracefs installed in non-standard locations.

2024-05-16rtla: Add --trace-buffer-size optionDaniel Bristot de Oliveira1-1/+1
Add the option allow the users to set a different buffer size for the trace. For example, in large systems, the user might be interested on reducing the trace buffer to avoid large tracing files. The buffer size is specified in kB, and it is only affecting the tracing instance. The function trace_set_buffer_size() appears on libtracefs v1.6, so increase the minimum required version on Makefile.config.

2024-03-20tools/rtla: Use tools/build makefiles to build rtlaDaniel Bristot de Oliveira1-0/+47
Use tools/build/ makefiles to build rtla, inheriting the benefits of it. For example, having a proper way to handle dependencies. rtla is built using perf infra-structure when building inside the kernel tree. At this point, rtla diverges from perf in two points: Documentation and tarball generation/build. At the documentation level, rtla is one step ahead, placing the documentation at Documentation/tools/rtla/, using the same build tools as kernel documentation. The idea is to move perf documentation to the same scheme and then share the same makefiles. rtla has a tarball target that the (old) RHEL8 uses. The tarball was kept using a simple standalone makefile for compatibility. The standalone makefile shares most of the code, e.g., flags, with regular buildings. The tarball method was set as deprecated. If necessary, we can make a rtla tarball like perf, which includes the entire tools/build. But this would also require changes in the user side (the directory structure changes, and probably the deps to build the package). Inspired on perf and objtool.
