2013-05-27perf tools: make perf to build in 3.9 kernel tree againtracking-lsk-misc-fixes-manifest-20130614.0tracking-lsk-misc-fixes-manifest-20130613.0tracking-lsk-misc-fixes-lsk-20130528.0tracking-lsk-misc-fixes-lsk-20130527.0v3.9/ynk-fixesFathi Boudra
Put the behaviour back to the same as in 3.8 kernel tree, but preserve compatibility with make version 3.80 Signed-off-by: Andrey Konovalov <andrey.konovalov@linaro.org>
2013-01-24perf tools: Fix GNU make v3.80 compatibility issueAl Cooper
According to Documentation/Changes, the kernel should be buildable with GNU make 3.80+. tools/perf/config/utilities.mak contains the "$(or" construct, which requires make 3.81. This causes "make" to fail on systems with GNU make 3.80. Replace "$(or" with an equivalent "$(if" expression, to restore backward compatibility. 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.

2012-10-26perf tools: Always show CHK message when doing try-ccNamhyung Kim
It might be useful to see what's happening behind us rather than just waiting few seconds during the config checking. Also align the CHK message with other ones.

2012-10-24perf tools: Diplays more output on features check for make V=1Jiri Olsa
Adding more verbose output for compile time features checking, to ease up debuging of feature detection failures.

2011-04-19perf tools: Move `try-cc'Michael Witten
The `try-cc' user-defined function was in tools/perf/feature-tests.mak; this commit moves it to tools/perf/config/utilities.mak.

2011-04-19perf tools: Makefile: PYTHON{,_CONFIG} to bandage Python 3 incompatibilityMichael Witten
Currently, Python 3 is not supported by perf's code; this can cause the build to fail for systems that have Python 3 installed as the default python: python{,-config} The Correct Solution is to write compatibility code so that Python 3 works out-of-the-box. However, users often have an ancillary Python 2 installed: python2{,-config} Therefore, a quick fix is to allow the user to specify those ancillary paths as the python binaries that Makefile should use, thereby avoiding Python 3 altogether; as an added benefit, the Python binaries may be installed in non-standard locations without the need for updating any PATH variable. This commit adds the ability to set PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG either as environment variables or as make variables on the command line; the paths may be relative, and usually only PYTHON is necessary in order for PYTHON_CONFIG to be defined implicitly. Some rudimentary error checking is performed when the user explicitly specifies a value for any of these variables. In addition, this commit introduces significantly robust makefile infrastructure for working with paths and communicating with the shell; it's currently only used for handling Python, but I hope it will prove useful in refactoring the makefiles.
