From b0063dbfb031a7c728ed0d9533257e8329292cf1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2015 12:54:30 -0300 Subject: 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 systems. [acme@rhel5 linux]$ make NO_LIBPERL=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j2' parallel build Auto-detecting system features: ... lzma: [ on ] ... get_cpuid: [ OFF ] config/Makefile:630: Your gcc lacks the __get_cpuid() builtin, disables support for auxtrace/Intel PT, please install a newer gcc MKDIR /tmp/build/perf/util/ This fixes the build on old systems such as RHEL/CentOS 5.11.
