Hello All!
This short series make it possible to build a host perf.
When run on the target, perf may generate raw dumps. Those dumps are to
be parsed by perf itself to gfenerate proper reports; this can (and
should probably) be done off-line ona fast machine, rather than on the
target.
First, we apply a number of fixes to the perf linux tool:
- really do not build the documentation
- honour the number of parallel jobs
- really disable unavailable features
- conditioanlly add support for gz and xz
Then, we build perf for the target in an empty directory, rather than
in-place, so that we do not mix the target .o files with the host .o
files.
Finally, we do build the host perf, alsao in its own directory.
Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
