tools build: Add feature detection for g++

2016-10-05T22:59:35Z

Check if g++ is available. The result will be used by builtin clang and LLVM support. Since LLVM requires C++11, this feature detector checks std::move().

perf build: Add sdt feature detection

2016-07-14T02:09:09Z

This checks whether sys/sdt.h is available or not, which is required for DTRACE_PROBE(). We can disable this feature by passing NO_SDT=1 when building. This flag will be used for SDT test case and further SDT events in perftools.

perf tools: Add feature detection for gelf_getnote()

2016-07-12T18:20:41Z

That is not present on some libelf implementations, such as the one used in Alpine Linux: libelf-0.8.13. This ends up disabling the SDT code, that relies on this function. One alternative would be to provide an weak fallback implementation or the open coded variant used by the buildid sysfs notes reading code.

perf build: Add feature detection for libelf's elf_getshdrstrndx()

2016-07-04T22:38:59Z

That appeared after 0.140, and will be used in the SDT code, so, to avoid bisection break on older systems, add a feature detection and provide a stub with a pr_debug() to keep it building.

perf build: Add build-test for debug-frame on arm/arm64

2016-05-11T15:24:58Z

Debug-frame for remote platforms is not related to the host platform, so we should test each platform separately.

perf build: Add build-test for libunwind cross-platforms support

2016-05-11T15:24:58Z

Currently only test for local libunwind. We should check all supported platforms so we can use them to parse perf.data with callchain info on different machines.

bpf tools: Fix syscall argument

2016-04-28T12:58:57Z

Coverity flagged this under CID 1354884 as a sizeof mismatch, it turns out that the argument "attr" passed to syscall should have been a pointer to attr in the first place.

bpf tools: Remove expression with no effect

2016-04-28T12:58:57Z

Assigning "attr" to "attr" does not have any effect, but was caught by Coverity, so let's remove this.

perf probe: Check if dwarf_getlocations() is available

2016-04-06T13:44:28Z

If not, tell the user that: config/Makefile:273: Old libdw.h, finding variables at given 'perf probe' point will not work, install elfutils-devel/libdw-dev >= 0.157 And return -ENOTSUPP in die_get_var_range(), failing features that need it, like the one pointed out above. This fixes the build on older systems, such as Ubuntu 12.04.5.
