      perf tools: Fix -ldw/-lelf link test when static linking · d14c4965
      Mike Frysinger authored 
      
Since libelf sometimes uses libpthread, we have to list that after -lelf
when someone tries to build statically.  Else things go boom:

Makefile:479: *** No libelf.h/libelf found, please install \
	libelf-dev/elfutils-libelf-devel.  Stop.

Similarly, the -ldw test fails as it often uses -lz:

Makefile:462: No libdw.h found or old libdw.h found or elfutils is older \
	than 0.138, disables dwarf support. Please install new elfutils-devel/libdw-dev

And if we add debugging to try-cc, we see:
+ echo '#include <dwarf.h>

int main(void)
{
        Dwarf *dbg = dwarf_begin(0, DWARF_C_READ);
        return (long)dbg;
}'

      perf tools: Revert regression in configuration of Python support · a363a9da
      Michael Witten authored 
      
Among other things, the following:

  commit 31160d7f
  Date:   Tue Jan 8 16:22:36 2013 -0500
  perf tools: Fix GNU make v3.80 compatibility issue

attempts to aid the user by tapping into an existing error message,
as described in the commit message:

  ... Also fix an issue where _get_attempt was called with only
  one argument. This prevented the error message from printing
  the name of the variable that can be used to fix the problem.

or more precisely:

  -$(if $($(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$($(1)),$(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$(2)))
  +$(if $($(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$($(1)),$(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$(2),$(1)))

However, The "missing" argument was in fact missing on purpose; it's
absence is a signal that the error message should be skipped, because
the failure would be due to the default value, not any user-supplied
value.  This can be seen in how `_ge_attempt' uses `gea_err' (in the
config/utilities.mak file):

  _ge_attempt = $(if $(get-executable),$(get-executable),$(_gea_warn)$(call _gea_err,$(2)))
  _gea_warn = $(warning The path '$(1)' is not executable.)
  _gea_err  = $(if $(1),$(error Please set '$(1)' appropriately))

That is, because the argument is no longer missing, the value `$(1)'
(associated with `_gea_err') always evaluates to true, thus always
triggering the error condition that is meant to be reserved for
only the case when a user explicitly supplies an invalid value.

Concretely, the result is a regression in the Makefile's configuration
of python support; rather than gracefully disable support when the
relevant executables cannot be found according to default values, the
build process halts in error as though the user explicitly supplied
the values.

This new commit simply reverts the offending one-line change.

      perf tools: add NO_BACKTRACE for application self-debugging · c9f08bee
      Irina Tirdea authored 
      
perf has support for self-debugging by defining dump_stack function.
This function uses backtrace and backtrace_symbols functions defined as
GNU extensions.

In Android, bionic does not offer support for these functions and
compilation will fail with the following error:

target  C: libperf <= tools/perf/util/util.c
tools/perf/util/util.c:4:22: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Add a compile-time option (NO_BACKTRACE) to enable or disable
self-debugging functionality in perf. This can also help in debugging
since it offers the possibility to turn on/off printing the backtrace.

      perf tools: Add libunwind dependency for DWARF CFI unwinding · 6a40cd90
      Jiri Olsa authored 
      
Adding libunwind to be linked with perf if available. It's required
for the to get dwarf cfi unwinding support.

Also building perf with the dwarf call frame informations by default,
so that we can unwind callchains in perf itself.

Adding LIBUNWIND_DIR Makefile variable allowing user to specify
the directory with libunwind to be linked. This is used for
debug purposes.
