This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled perf build: Add missing cflags when building with custom libtraceevent to the 6.12-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: perf-build-add-missing-cflags-when-building-with-cus.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d58ceb4141a844912c665dfe1d1c964a974478c1 Author: Yicong Yang <yangyicong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Oct 24 21:32:36 2024 +0800 perf build: Add missing cflags when building with custom libtraceevent [ Upstream commit d5a0a4ab4af4c27de097b78d6f1b7e7f7e31908f ] When building with custom libtraceevent, below errors occur: $ make -C tools/perf NO_LIBPYTHON=1 PKG_CONFIG_PATH=<custom libtraceevent> In file included from util/session.h:5, from builtin-buildid-list.c:17: util/trace-event.h:153:10: fatal error: traceevent/event-parse.h: No such file or directory 153 | #include <traceevent/event-parse.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <snip similar errors of missing headers> This is because the include path is missed in the cflags. Add it.
