[ Upstream commit a278f3d8191228212c553a5d4303fa603214b717 ]

The '&amp;&amp;' command seems to have a bad effect when $(cmd_$(1)) exits with
non-zero effect: the command failure is masked (despite `set -e`) and all but
the first command of $(dep-cmd) is executed (successfully, as they are mostly
printfs), thus overall returning 0 in the end.

This means in practice that despite compilation errors, tools's build Makefile
will return success. We see this very reliably with libbpf's Makefile, which
doesn't get compilation error propagated properly. This in turns causes issues
with selftests build, as well as bpftool and other projects that rely on
building libbpf.

The fix is simple: don't use &amp;&amp;. Given `set -e`, we don't need to chain
commands with &amp;&amp;. The shell will exit on first failure, giving desired
behavior and propagating error properly.

<title>perf build: Remove libaudit from the default feature checks</title>

Ingo reported that the libaudit was always appearing as OFF:

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...            dwarf_getlocations: [ on  ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
  ...                      libaudit: [ OFF ]

And everything seemed to work, i.e. we were checking for a feature that
we don't use, causing confusion for people building perf, so work to
remove that nuisance while making sure that it works when an arch
doesn't provide the alternative method to generate the syscall id/name
conversion tables.

Longer explanation of the new modus operandi:

  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf NO_SYSCALL_TABLE=1
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...            dwarf_getlocations: [ on  ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
  ...                        libcap: [ on  ]
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
  ...        numa_num_possible_cpus: [ on  ]
  ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
  ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
  ...                     libcrypto: [ on  ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
  ...                          zlib: [ on  ]
  ...                          lzma: [ on  ]
  ...                     get_cpuid: [ on  ]
  ...                           bpf: [ on  ]
  ...                        libaio: [ on  ]
  ...                       libzstd: [ on  ]
  ...        disassembler-four-args: [ on  ]

  Makefile.config:665: No libaudit.h found, disables 'trace' tool, please install audit-libs-devel or libaudit-dev
    GEN      /tmp/build/perf/common-cmds.h
    MKDIR    /tmp/build/perf/fd/
    MKDIR    /tmp/build/perf/fs/
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  $

The libaudit test is forced and it fails when audit-libs-devel isn't available:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output
  test-libaudit.c:2:10: fatal error: libaudit.h: No such file or directory
      2 | #include &lt;libaudit.h&gt;
        |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.
  $

If we install audit-libs-devel and rebuild it continues not to be shown as OFF
in the main auto-detection summary, but again gets tested and this time:

  $ rpm -q audit-libs-devel
  audit-libs-devel-3.0-0.15.20191104git1c2f876.fc31.x86_64
  $

The make output for the feature detection comes clean:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output

And the feature detection binary is successfully built and is dynamicly linked
with libaudit:

  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.bin | grep audit
  	libaudit.so.1 =&gt; /lib64/libaudit.so.1 (0x00007f5bf5177000)
  $

As well as the resulting perf binary:

  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep audit
  	libaudit.so.1 =&gt; /lib64/libaudit.so.1 (0x00007fad511c7000)
  $

And 'perf trace' works using the libaudit method:

  $ sudo /tmp/build/perf/perf trace -e nanosleep sleep 1
       0.000 (1000.067 ms): sleep/281872 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffedbbe69d0) = 0
  $

If we leave audit-libs-devel installed but don't disable the use of the best
method, the one using SYSCALL_TABLE, the default for architectures that provide
the script to build the syscall id/name mapping using the .tbl files copied
from the kernel sources, we get:

  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf
  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf
  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...            dwarf_getlocations: [ on  ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ on  ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
  ...                        libcap: [ on  ]
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ on  ]
  ...        numa_num_possible_cpus: [ on  ]
  ...                       libperl: [ on  ]
  ...                     libpython: [ on  ]
  ...                     libcrypto: [ on  ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ on  ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
  ...                          zlib: [ on  ]
  ...                          lzma: [ on  ]
  ...                     get_cpuid: [ on  ]
  ...                           bpf: [ on  ]
  ...                        libaio: [ on  ]
  ...                       libzstd: [ on  ]
  ...        disassembler-four-args: [ on  ]

    GEN      /tmp/build/perf/common-cmds.h
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  $

Again, no mention of libaudit being on or OFF and:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output
  cat: /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libaudit.make.output: No such file or directory
  $

We didn't even bother checking for its availability, slightly speeding up the
build process and:

  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep libaudit
  $

We don't link with it, also:

  $ sudo /tmp/build/perf/perf trace -e nanosleep sleep 1
       0.000 (1000.053 ms): sleep/299125 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffc24611b50) = 0
  $

And globs become available:

  $ sudo /tmp/build/perf/perf trace -e *sleep sleep 1
       0.000 (1000.072 ms): sleep/299136 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffe7a3c4ff0) = 0
  $

OpenCSD version v0.14.0 adds in a new output element. This is represented
by a new value in the generic element type enum, which must be added to
the handling code in perf cs-etm-decoder to prevent build errors due to
build options on the perf project.

This element is not currently used by the perf decoder.

Perf build feature test updated to require a minimum of 0.14.0

Tested on Linux 5.7-rc3.

Clang has -Wself-assign enabled by default under -Wall, which always
gets -Werror'ed on this file, causing sync-compare-and-swap to be
disabled by default.

The generally-accepted way to spell "this value is intentionally
unused," is casting it to `void`.  This is accepted by both GCC and
Clang with -Wall enabled: https://godbolt.org/z/qqZ9r3

<title>perf tools: Add file-handle feature test</title>

<content type='text'>
The file handle (FHANDLE) support is configurable so some systems might not
have it.  So add a config feature item to check it on build time so that we
don't add the cgroup tracking feature based on that.

Committer notes:

Had to make the test use the same construct as its later use in
synthetic-events.c, in the next patch in this series. i.e. make it be:

	struct {
		struct file_handle fh;
		uint64_t cgroup_id;
	} handle;

To cope with:

    CC       /tmp/build/perf/util/cloexec.o
  util/synthetic-events.c:428:22: error: field 'fh' with   CC       /tmp/build/perf/util/call-path.o
  variable sized type 'struct file_handle' not at the end of a struct or class is a GNU
        extension [-Werror,-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end]
                  struct file_handle fh;
                                     ^
  1 error generated.

Deal with this at some point, i.e. investigate if the right thing is to
remove that -Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end from our CFLAGS, for
now do the test the same way as it is used looks more sensible.
