tools: Sync kvm related header files for arm64 and s390

2016-08-15T21:11:17Z

From a quick look nothing stands out as requiring changes to kvm tools such as tools/perf/arch/s390/util/kvm-stat.c. Silences these header checking warnings: $ make -C tools/perf make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build Warning: tools/arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel Warning: tools/arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/sie.h differs from kernel Warning: tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Yarygin Cc: David Ahern Cc: Hemant Kumar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Michael Ellerman Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Naveen N.

tools: Sync cpufeatures headers with the kernel

2016-08-09T14:56:33Z

Due to: 1e61f78baf89 ("x86/cpufeature: Make sure DISABLED/REQUIRED macros are updated") No changes to tools using those headers (tools/arch/x86/lib/mem{set,cpu}_64.S) seems necessary.

tools: Sync cpufeatures.h and vmx.h with the kernel

2016-08-09T14:21:57Z

There were changes related to the deprecation of the "pcommit" instruction: fd1d961dd681 ("x86/insn: remove pcommit") dfa169bbee00 ("Revert "KVM: x86: add pcommit support"") No need to update anything in the tools, as "pcommit" wasn't being listed on the VMX_EXIT_REASONS in the tools/perf/arch/x86/util/kvm-stat.c file. Just grab fresh copies of these files to silence the file cache coherency detector: $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build Warning: tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h differs from kernel Warning: tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/vmx.h differs from kernel INSTALL GTK UI # Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Dan Williams Cc: David Ahern Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paolo Bonzini Cc: Ross Zwisler Cc: Wang Nan Cc: Xiao Guangrong Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-07pmcc1ysydhyyxbmp1vt0l4@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

tools: Copy the bitsperlong.h files from the kernel

2016-07-12T18:20:39Z

We use it in bitops/__ffs.h and bitops/atomic.h, that we also got from the kernel, but were getting it from either newer systems that carry it in /usr/include, or from the kernel sources, that we decided not to touch from tools/ code. Fix it.

tools: Copy the header files needed by perf tools

2016-07-12T18:20:36Z

Those kernel files were being directly accessed, which we're not allowing anymore to avoid that changes in the kernel side break tooling. Warn if these copies drift from the original files.

perf tools: Introduce weak alternative to sched_getcpu()

2016-07-12T18:20:34Z

Which is just a wrapper for sys_getcpu and is not present in at least musl libc. Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: David Ahern Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-kblef7svmhr0g93kkx78envg@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

tools: Copy uapi/asm/perf_regs.h from the kernel

2016-07-12T18:20:33Z

To allow the build to complete on older systems, where those files are either not uptodate, lacking some recent additions or not present at all. And check if the copy drifts from the kernel.

perf bench: Copy kernel files needed to build mem{cpy,set} x86_64 benchmarks

2016-07-12T18:20:32Z

We can't access kernel files directly from tools/, so copy the required bits, and make sure that we detect when the original files, in the kernel, gets modified.

perf tools: Move syscall number fallbacks from perf-sys.h to tools/arch/x86/include/asm/

2016-07-12T18:19:54Z

And remove the empty tools/arch/x86/include/asm/unistd_{32,64}.h files introduced by eae7a755ee81 ("perf tools, x86: Build perf on older user-space as well"). This way we get closer to mirroring the kernel for cases where __NR_ can't be found for some include path/_GNU_SOURCE/whatever scenario.

tools include: Add basic atomic.h implementation from the kernel sources

2015-05-08T19:11:05Z

Uses the arch/x86/ kernel code for x86_64/i386, fallbacking to a gcc intrinsics implementation that has been tested in at least sparc64. Will be used for reference counting in tools/perf.
