Introducing FEATURES_DUMP make variable to provide features
detection dump file and bypass the feature detection.
The intention is to use this during build tests to skip
repeated features detection, like:
Get feature dump static build into /tmp/fd file:
$ make feature-dump FEATURE_DUMP_COPY=/tmp/fd LDFLAGS=-static
BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build
Auto-detecting system features:
... dwarf: [ OFF ]
SNIP
FEATURE-DUMP file copied into /tmp/fd
Use /tmp/fd to build perf:
$ make FEATURES_DUMP=/tmp/fd LDFLAGS=-static
$ file perf

In this case a '-lutil' should be appended to -lpython2.7.

line of collect2 by strace. However it doesn't work. Seems I have a

If both LIBBPF and DWARF are detected, it is possible to create prologue
for eBPF programs to help them access kernel data. HAVE_BPF_PROLOGUE and
CONFIG_BPF_PROLOGUE are added as flags for this feature.
PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET is introduced in commit
63ab024a5b ("perf tools:
regs_query_register_offset() infrastructure"), which indicates that an
architecture supports converting name of a register to its offset in
'struct pt_regs'. Without this support, BPF_PROLOGUE should be turned
off.

By adding libbpf into perf's Makefile, this patch enables perf to build
libbpf if libelf is found and neither NO_LIBELF nor NO_LIBBPF is set.
The newly introduced code is similar to how libapi and libtraceevent
are wired into Makefile.perf.
MANIFEST is also updated for 'make perf-*-src-pkg'.
Append make_no_libbpf to tools/perf/tests/make.
The 'bpf' feature check is appended into default FEATURE_TESTS and
FEATURE_DISPLAY, so perf will check the API version of bpf in
/path/to/kernel/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h. Which should not fail except
when we are trying to port this code to an old kernel.
Error messages are also updated to notify users about the lack of BPF
support in 'perf record' if libelf is missing or the BPF API check
failed.
tools/lib/bpf is added to TAG_FOLDERS to allow us to navigate libbpf
files when working on perf using tools/perf/tags.

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
enough for the 'perf bench numa' entry, so add a test to check for that:

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.

When building with a prefix ending with a slash, for example:
$ make prefix=/usr/local/
one of the perf tests fail to compile due to BUILD_STR macro mishandling
bindir_SQ string containing with two slashes:
-DBINDIR="BUILD_STR(/usr/local//bin)"
with the following error:
CC tests/attr.o
tests/attr.c: In function ‘test__attr’:
tests/attr.c:168:50: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘;’ token
snprintf(path_perf, PATH_MAX, "%s/perf", BINDIR);

}
^
tests/attr.c:176:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]
}

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
This patch works around the problem by "cleaning" the bindir string
using make's abspath function.

/tmp/cc6dRSqd.o: In function `main':
test-libbabeltrace.c:(.text+0xf): undefined reference to `bt_ctf_stream_class_get_packet_context_type'
although they should already fail with a build error due to lack of a
proper prototype for the function. Due to this I first tried to find
which library was missing - while it was the whole feature that was
missing from the .h file already.
To solve this, propagate -Wall -Werror to all testcases and remove them
from testcase Makefile rules that used them explicitly.
A missing feature now outputs:
