6076e2a47c tools build: Fixup feature detection display function name
Cut'n'paste mistake, it should eval the name of the function

b0063dbfb0 tools build: Add test for presence of __get_cpuid() gcc builtin
The auxtrace code needed by Intel PT uses the __get_cpuid() gcc builtin,
that is not present in old systems, breaking the build.

Add a test to check for that builtin and disable AUXTRACE in those

f8ac8606fd tools build: Add test for presence of numa_num_possible_cpus() in libnuma
The existing numa test checks only if numa.h and numa_available() are
present, but that can be satisfied with an old libnuma that is not

0bdede8a3e tools build: Allow duplicate objects in the object list
It's sometimes useful to specify the object affiliation to multiple
config options like:

  libperf-$(CONFIG_X86) += tsc.o
  libperf-$(CONFIG_AUXTRACE) += tsc.o

while the object itself is linked only once. Adding the support for this
and ignoring duplicate objects in the object list.

237fae79f5 perf tools: Add Intel PT instruction decoder
Add support for decoding instructions for Intel Processor Trace.  The
kernel x86 instruction decoder is copied for this.

This essentially provides intel_pt_get_insn() which takes a binary
buffer, uses the kernel's x86 instruction decoder to get details of the
instruction and then categorizes it for consumption by an Intel PT
decoder.

7aec51cbf0 perf tools: Support static linking with libdw
The Fedora 22 version of libdw requires a couple of extra libraries to
link. With a dynamic link the dependencies are pulled in automatically,
but this doesn't work for static linking. Add the needed libraries
explicitely to the feature probe and the Makefile.

v2: Explicitly check for static linking and only add the dependencies
    when -static is set. This is to avoid regressions on Arnaldo's system.

1b76c13e4b bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library and add bpf feature check
This is the first patch of libbpf. The goal of libbpf is to create a
standard way for accessing eBPF object files. This patch creates
'Makefile' and 'Build' for it, allows 'make' to build libbpf.a and
libbpf.so, 'make install' to put them into proper directories.
Most part of Makefile is borrowed from traceevent.

Before building, it checks the existence of libelf in Makefile, and deny
to build if not found. Instead of throwing an error if libelf not found,
the error raises in a phony target "elfdep". This design is to ensure
'make clean' still workable even if libelf is not found.

Because libbpf requires 'kern_version' field set for 'union bpf_attr'
(bpfdep" is used for that dependency), Kernel BPF API is also checked
by intruducing a new feature check 'bpf' into tools/build/feature,
which checks the existence and version of linux/bpf.h. When building
libbpf, it searches that file from include/uapi/linux in kernel source
tree (controlled by FEATURE_CHECK_CFLAGS-bpf). Since it searches kernel
source tree it reside, installing of newest kernel headers is not
required, except we are trying to port these files to an old kernel.

To avoid checking that file when perf building, the newly introduced
'bpf' feature check doesn't added into FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY by default in tools/build/Makefile.feature, but added
into libbpf's specific.

d7a3d85e08 perf build: Do not fail on missing Build file
Allow nesting into directories without Build file. Currently we force
include of the Build file, which fails the build when the Build file is
missing.

We already support empty *-in.o' objects if there's nothing in the
directory to be compiled, so we can just use it for missing Build file
cases.

Also adding this case under tests.

c819e2cf2e tools build: Add new build support
Adding new build framework into 'tools/build' to be used by tools.

There's no change for actual building at this point, it comes in the
next patches.

The idea and more details are explained in the
'tools/build/Documentation/Build.txt' file.

I adopted everything from the kernel build system, with some changes to
allow for multiple binaries build definitions.

While the kernel's build output is single image (forget modules) we need
to be able to build several binaries/libraries.

The basic idea is that sser provides 'Build' files with objects
definitions like:

  perf-y += a.o
  perf-y += b.o
  libperf-y += c.o
  libperf-y += d.o

and the build framework outputs files:

  perf-in.o    # a.o, b.o compiled in
  libperf-in.o # c.o, d.o compiled in
