The previous build would add -Itools/lib and get dependencies for libtraceevent, libsubcmd, libsymbol, libapi and libbpf meaning that overriding these libraries would change the link time dependency but the headers would erroneously come from tools/lib. Fix the build to install headers and then depend on these. To reduce exposing internal headers/APIs some clean up is performed. tools/lib/symbol has a Makefile added, while tools/lib/api and tools/lib/subcmd have install targets added. The pattern used for the dependencies in Makefile.perf is modelled on libbpf. The problem and solution were motivated by this issue and discussion: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAEf4BzbbOHQZUAe6iWaehKCPQAf3VC=hq657buqe2_yRKxaK-A@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Ian Rogers (14): tools lib api: Add install target tools lib subcmd: Add install target perf build: Install libsubcmd locally when building perf build: Install libapi locally when building perf build: Install libperf locally when building perf build: Install libtraceevent locally when building tools lib api: Add missing install headers tools lib perf: Add missing install headers tool lib symbol: Add Makefile/Build perf build: Install libsymbol locally when building perf expr: Tidy hashmap dependency perf thread_map: Reduce exposure of libperf internal API perf cpumap: Tidy libperf includes perf build: Use tools/lib headers from install path tools/lib/api/Makefile | 52 ++++++ tools/lib/perf/Makefile | 10 +- tools/lib/subcmd/Makefile | 49 ++++++ tools/lib/symbol/Build | 1 + tools/lib/symbol/Makefile | 115 +++++++++++++ tools/perf/.gitignore | 7 +- tools/perf/Makefile.config | 2 - tools/perf/Makefile.perf | 152 ++++++++++++------ tools/perf/builtin-stat.c | 1 + tools/perf/builtin-trace.c | 4 +- tools/perf/tests/cpumap.c | 2 +- tools/perf/tests/expr.c | 1 + tools/perf/tests/openat-syscall.c | 1 + tools/perf/tests/pmu-events.c | 1 + tools/perf/tests/thread-map.c | 1 + tools/perf/util/Build | 5 - tools/perf/util/auxtrace.h | 2 +- tools/perf/util/bpf-loader.c | 4 - tools/perf/util/bpf_counter.c | 2 +- tools/perf/util/cpumap.c | 1 + tools/perf/util/cpumap.h | 2 +- tools/perf/util/evsel.c | 5 +- tools/perf/util/evsel.h | 2 - tools/perf/util/expr.c | 1 + tools/perf/util/expr.h | 7 +- tools/perf/util/metricgroup.c | 1 + tools/perf/util/python.c | 6 +- .../scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c | 2 +- tools/perf/util/stat-shadow.c | 1 + tools/perf/util/stat.c | 4 - tools/perf/util/thread_map.c | 1 + tools/perf/util/thread_map.h | 2 - 32 files changed, 361 insertions(+), 86 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/lib/symbol/Build create mode 100644 tools/lib/symbol/Makefile -- 2.38.1.431.g37b22c650d-goog
