tools lib api: Add str_error_c to libapi

2016-07-27T20:16:43+00:00

Because it uses that function, which would lead every tool using it
to need to link against tools/lib/str_error_r.o.

This fixes building tools/vm/, that links with libapi.

perf tools: Uninline scnprintf() and vscnprint()

2016-07-12T18:20:24+00:00

They were in tools/include/linux/kernel.h, requiring that it in turn
included stdio.h, which is way too heavy.

tools: Introduce str_error_r()

2016-07-12T18:19:47+00:00

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.

perf symbols: Move fprintf routines to separate object file

2016-04-14T22:46:53+00:00

To disentangle symbol printing from all the code related to symbol
tables, resolution of addresses to symbols, etc.

tools lib: Move bitmap.[ch] from tools/perf/ to tools/{lib,include}/

2016-01-08T15:35:46+00:00

So that lib/find_bit.c doesn't requires anything inside tools/perf/

tools lib: Move find_next_bit.c to tools/lib/

2016-01-08T15:35:35+00:00

The commit that introduced it should've moved it to the same place, plus
the 'tools/' prefix, but instead moved it to a bogus tools/lib/util/
directory, being the only file there.

Move it to tools/lib/find_bit.c, picking the name for the file where
these routines live since:

 8f6f19dd5143 ("lib: move find_last_bit to lib/find_next_bit.c")

Next step is to make tools/lib/find_bit.c to differ from lib/find_bit.c
just in removing what is not used by tools/.

perf python: Add missing files to binding link list

2016-01-07T19:47:11+00:00

Fixing this problem, introduced recently:

  $ perf test python
  16: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems      : FAILED!

In verbose mode we find out what is missing:

  $ perf test -v python
  16: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems      :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 24894
  Traceback (most recent call last):

  ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: find_next_bit
  test child finished with -1

perf stat: Move perf_counts struct and functions into separate object

2015-08-08T17:16:49+00:00

Moving 'struct perf_counts' and associated functions into separate
object, so we could remove stat.c object dependency from python build.

It makes the python code to build properly, because it fails to load due
to missing stat-shadow.c object dependency if some patches from Kan
Liang are applied.

So apply this one, then Kan's.

tools: Copy lib/hweight.c from the kernel sources

2015-07-09T19:29:56+00:00

Instead of accessing it directly, as it uses EXPORT_SYMBOL, that has
no meaning in tools/perf and because we removed the stubs for it, i.e.
we removed the tools/include/linux/export.h file.

This fixes the build for the detached tarball sources cases and removes
one more source of entanglement with the kernel sources.

perf tools: Fix the detached tarball wrt rbtree copy

2015-07-09T19:23:57+00:00

The python binding build process was still looking at the kernel
rbtree.c file, so, when doing a in-tree build it would work, but when
creating a tarball using tools/perf/MANIFEST as the contents list and
then trying to build the resulting detached sources, it failed.

Fix it by removing one level of indirection from rbtree.c in the
tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources file.
