perf build: Remove Makefile.syscalls

Now a single beauty file is generated and used by all architectures, remove the per-architecture Makefiles, Kbuild files and previous generator script. Note: there was conversation with Charlie Jenkins and they'd written an alternate approach to support multiple architectures: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250114-perf_syscall_arch_runtime-v1-1-5b304e408e11@rivosinc.com/ It would have been better to have helped Charlie fix their series (my apologies) but they agreed that the approach taken here was likely best for longer term maintainability: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Z6Jk_UN9i69QGqUj@ghost/ Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers Reviewed-by: Howard Chu Reviewed-by: Charlie Jenkins Reviewed-by: Namhyung Kim Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250319050741.269828-11-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

perf tools: Build x86 32-bit syscall table from arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl

2024-09-02T14:13:40Z

To remove one more use of the audit libs and address a problem reported with a recent change where a function isn't available when using the audit libs method, that should really go away, this being one step in that direction. The script used to generate the 64-bit syscall table was already parametrized to generate for both 64-bit and 32-bit, so just use it and wire the generated table to the syscalltbl.c routines.
