libperf: Move to tools/lib/perf

2020-01-06T14:46:09Z

Move libperf from its current location under tools/perf to a separate directory under tools/lib/. Also change various paths (mainly includes) to reflect the libperf move to a separate directory and add a new directory under MANIFEST.

perf tools: Allow to link with libbpf dynamicaly

2019-11-26T14:17:45Z

Currently we support only static linking with kernel's libbpf (tools/lib/bpf). This patch adds libbpf package detection and support to link perf with it dynamically. The libbpf package status is displayed with: $ make VF=1 Auto-detecting system features: ... ... libbpf: [ on ] It's not checked by default, because it's quite new. Once it's on most distros we can switch it on. For the same reason it's not added to the test-all check. Perf does not need advanced version of libbpf, so we can check just for the base bpf_object__open function. Adding new compile variable to detect libbpf package and link bpf dynamically: $ make LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 ... LINK perf $ ldd perf | grep bpf libbpf.so.0 => /lib64/libbpf.so.0 (0x00007f46818bc000) If libbpf is not installed, build stops with: Makefile.config:486: *** Error: No libbpf devel library found,\ please install libbpf-devel.

perf build: Add detection of java-11-openjdk-devel package

2019-09-25T19:26:41Z

With Java 11 there is no seperate JRE anymore. Details: https://coderanch.com/t/701603/java/JRE-JDK Therefore the detection of the JRE needs to be adapted. This change works for s390 and x86.

perf tools: tools/include should come before tools/uapi/include

2019-08-20T15:07:22Z

The next cset will grap const.h copies from the kernel to keep bits.h in sync as it started to use linux/const.h, that in turn includes uapi/linux/const.h. So now we have a file with the same name in tools/include and tools/uapi/include, and one includes the other, we need to have tools/include/uapi/ after tools/include/ for this to work, fix it.
