kernel/tools/perf/util/include/asm/unistd_32.h, branch linux-4.3.yHosts the 0x221E linux distro kernel.https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/atom?h=linux-4.3.y2012-03-14T15:42:34Zperf tools, x86: Build perf on older user-space as well2012-03-14T15:42:34ZIngo Molnarmingo@elte.hu2012-03-14T15:42:34Zurn:sha1:eae7a755ee81129370c8f555b0d5672e6673735d
On ancient systems I get this build failure:
util/../../../arch/x86/include/asm/unistd.h:67:29: error: asm/unistd_64.h: No such file or directory
In file included from util/cache.h:7,
from builtin-test.c:8:
util/../perf.h: In function ‘sys_perf_event_open’:In file included from util/../perf.h:16
perf.h:170: error: ‘__NR_perf_event_open’ undeclared (first use in this function)
The reason is that this old system does not have the split
unistd.h headers yet, from which to pick up the syscall
definitions.
Add the syscall numbers to the already existing i386 and x86_64
blocks in perf.h, and also provide empty include file stubs.
With this patch perf builds and works fine on 5 years old
user-space as well.
