perf tools: Introduce tools/lib/lk library

2013-03-15T16:06:00Z

This introduces the tools/lib/lk library, that will gradually have the routines that now are used in tools/perf/ and other tools and that can be shared. Start by carving out debugfs routines for general use.

perf kvm: Initialize file_name var to fix segfault

2013-01-24T19:40:13Z

The 3786063 commit: perf kvm: Rename perf_kvm to perf_kvm_stat Moved the file_name from inside a local struct var that initialized some of its members, thus zero initializing the not explicitely initialized variables, one of which was 'file_name', to a standalone local variable, but forgot to initialize it explicitely to NULL, so it then got some undefined value, causing a segfault in strdup when it wasn't, by luck, zero. Fix it by explicitely initializing it to NULL.

perf kvm: Fix building perf kvm on non x86 arches

2012-11-23T23:40:17Z

Now, 'perf kvm stat' is only supported on x86, let its code depend on (__x86_64__ || __i386__) to fix building it on other architectures.

perf kvm: Rename perf_kvm to perf_kvm_stat

2012-11-23T22:44:05Z

Then let it only be used in 'perf kvm stat'. Preparatory patch to stop trying to build parts of this tool that for now are only supported on x86.

perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration applied

2012-11-19T22:21:03Z

Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order - and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel headerfiles to use and instead. Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include. This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally, we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI - at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards *should* be transferred there. I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this be changed to use -MD? Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain bisectability. Signed-off-by: David Howells
