Subject: [PATCH 1/3] perf tools: Allow to build with -ltcmalloc
Date: Sun, 13 Oct 2019 17:14:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191013151427.11941-2-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191013151427.11941-1-jolsa@kernel.org>

By using "make TCMALLOC=1" you can enable perf to be build
for usage with libtcmalloc.so (gperftools).

Get heap profile (tools/perf directory):

  $ <install gperftools>
  $ make TCMALLOC=1 DEBUG=1
  $ HEAPPROFILE=/tmp/heapprof ./perf ...
  $ pprof ./perf /tmp/heapprof.000*
