[ Upstream commit 6c014694b1d2702cdc736d17b60746e7b95ba664 ]

We were failing that due to GTK2+ and then for the ZSTD test, which made
test-all.c, the fast path feature detection file to fail and thus
trigger building all of the feature tests, slowing down the test.

Eventually the ZSTD test would be built and would succeed, since it had
the needed -lzstd, avoiding:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  /usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccRRJQ4u.o: in function `main_test_libzstd':
  /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/feature/test-libzstd.c:8: undefined reference to `ZSTD_createCStream'
  /usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/feature/test-libzstd.c:9: undefined reference to `ZSTD_freeCStream'
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  $

Fix it by adding -lzstd to the test-all target.

Now I need an entry to 'perf test' to make sure that
/tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output is empty...

[ Upstream commit 4751bddd3f983af2004ec470ca38b42d7a8a53bc ]

This is bitrotting, nobody is stepping up to work on it, and since we
treat warnings as errors, feature detection is failing in its main,
faster test (tools/build/feature/test-all.c) because of the GTK+2
infobar check.

So make this opt-in, at some point ditch this if nobody volunteers to
take care of this.

[ Upstream commit fa5c893181ed2ca2f96552f50073786d2cfce6c0 ]

When using a cross-compilation environment, such as OpenEmbedded,
the CC an CXX variables are set to something more than just a
command: there are arguments (such as --sysroot) that need to be
passed on to the compiler so that the right set of headers and
libraries are used.

For the particular case that our systems detected, CC is set to
the following:

  export CC="aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc  --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/machine/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot"

Without quotes, detection is as follows:

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ OFF ]
  ...            dwarf_getlocations: [ OFF ]
  ...                         glibc: [ OFF ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libcap: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libelf: [ OFF ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ OFF ]
  ...        numa_num_possible_cpus: [ OFF ]
  ...                       libperl: [ OFF ]
  ...                     libpython: [ OFF ]
  ...                     libcrypto: [ OFF ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ OFF ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ OFF ]
  ...                          zlib: [ OFF ]
  ...                          lzma: [ OFF ]
  ...                     get_cpuid: [ OFF ]
  ...                           bpf: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libaio: [ OFF ]
  ...                       libzstd: [ OFF ]
  ...        disassembler-four-args: [ OFF ]

  Makefile.config:414: *** No gnu/libc-version.h found, please install glibc-dev[el].  Stop.
  Makefile.perf:230: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed
  make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
  Makefile:69: recipe for target 'all' failed
  make: *** [all] Error 2

With CC and CXX quoted, some of those features are now detected.

[ Upstream commit e3232c2f39acafd5a29128425bc30b9884642cfa ]

commit c8c188679ccf ("tools build: Use the same CC for feature detection
and actual build") changed these assignments from unconditional (:=) to
conditional (?=) so that they wouldn't clobber values from the
environment. However, conditional assignment does not work properly for
variables that Make implicitly sets, among which are CC and CXX. To
quote tools/scripts/Makefile.include, which handles this properly:

  # Makefiles suck: This macro sets a default value of $(2) for the
  # variable named by $(1), unless the variable has been set by
  # environment or command line. This is necessary for CC and AR
  # because make sets default values, so the simpler ?= approach
  # won't work as expected.

In other words, the conditional assignments will not run even if the
variables are not overridden in the environment; Make will set CC to
"cc" and CXX to "g++" when it starts[1], meaning the variables are not
empty by the time the conditional assignments are evaluated. This breaks
cross-compilation when CROSS_COMPILE is set but CC isn't, since "cc"
gets used for feature detection instead of the cross compiler (and
likewise for CXX).

To fix the issue, just pass down the values of CC and CXX computed by
the parent Makefile, which gets included by the Makefile that actually
builds whatever we're detecting features for and so is guaranteed to
have good values. This is a better solution anyway, since it means we
aren't trying to replicate the logic of the parent build system and so
don't risk it getting out of sync.

Leave PKG_CONFIG alone, since 1) there's no common logic to compute it
in Makefile.include, and 2) it's not an implicit variable, so
conditional assignment works properly.

[ 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  ]

  ...                        libcap: [ on  ]
  ...                        libelf: [ 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
