tools lib api: Undefine _FORTIFY_SOURCE before setting it

2015-04-23T20:08:23+00:00

Some toolchains (like Hardened Gentoo) define _FORTIFY_SOURCE in the
built-in, default args.  This causes perf builds to fail with:

:0:0: error: "_FORTIFY_SOURCE" redefined [-Werror]
: note: this is the location of the previous definition cc1:
all warnings being treated as errors

To avoid this, undefine _FORTIFY_SOURCE before (possibly re-)defining it
in tools/lib/api.

v2 applies cleanly on top of already pulled kbuild changes for 4.1-rc1.

tools lib api: Rename libapikfs.a to libapi.a

2015-02-12T20:55:18+00:00

Renaming libapikfs.a to libapi.a, because it's not just 'fs' specific
library now.

tools lib api fs: Add {tracefs,debugfs}_configured() functions

2015-02-07T13:00:10+00:00

Add tracefs_configured() to return true if tracefs is configured in the
kernel (succeeds to find tracefs), and debugfs_configured() if debugfs
is configured in the kernel (succeeds to find debugfs).

tools lib api debugfs: Add DEBUGFS_DEFAULT_PATH macro

2015-02-07T12:56:32+00:00

Instead of hard coding "/sys/kernel/debug" everywhere, create a macro to
hold where the default path exists.

tools lib api fs: Add tracefs mount helper functions

2015-02-07T12:55:20+00:00

Since tracefs will now hold the event directory for perf, and even
though by default, debugfs still mounts tracefs on the debugfs/tracing
directory, the system admin may now choose to not mount debugfs and
instead just mount tracefs instead.

Having tracefs helper functions will facilitate having perf look for
tracefs first, and then try debugfs as a fallback.

tools lib fs: Add helper to find mounted file systems

2015-02-07T12:51:34+00:00

In preparation for adding tracefs for perf to use, create a findfs
helper utility that find_debugfs uses instead of hard coding the search
in the code. This will allow for a find_tracefs to be used as well.

perf tools: Do not check debugfs MAGIC for tracing files

2015-02-07T12:51:30+00:00

It's rather strange to be checking the debugfs MAGIC number for the
tracing directory. A system admin may want to have a custom set of
events to trace and it should be allowed to let the admin make a temp
file (even for tracing virtual boxes, this is useful).

Also with the coming tracefs, the files may not even be under debugfs,
so checking the debugfs MAGIC number is pointless.

tools lib fs debugfs: Check if debugfs is mounted when handling ENOENT

2015-01-22T20:02:23+00:00

If debugfs was already mounted, then its a matter of not finding the
tracepoint, tell the user that perhaps a CONFIG_ setting is not enabled.

tools lib fs debugfs: Introduce debugfs__strerror_open_tp

2015-01-22T20:02:20+00:00

There will be other cases where not just a tracepoint event is being
opened below the debugfs mountpoint, but it is rather common, so provide
one helper for that.
