Subject: [PATCH v1 0/5] Support dynamic opening of capstone and libLLVM
Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2025 09:32:03 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250120173208.344231-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)
Linking against libcapstone and libLLVM can be a significant increase
in dependencies and size of memory footprint. For something like `perf
record` the disassembler and addr2line functionality won't be
used. Support dynamically loading these libraries using dlopen and
then calling the appropriate functions found using dlsym.
The patch series:
1) moves the capstone and LLVM code to their own C files,
2) simplifies a little the capstone code,
3) adds perf_ variants of the functions that will either directly call
the function or use dlsym to discover it.
The addr2line LLVM functionality is written in C++. To avoid linking
against libLLVM for this, a new LIBLLVM_DYNAMIC option is added where
the C++ code with the libLLVM dependency will be built into a
libperf-llvm.so and that dlsym-ed and called against.
Ian Rogers (5):
perf capstone: Move capstone functionality into its own file
perf llvm: Move llvm functionality into its own file
perf capstone: Remove open_capstone_handle
perf capstone: Support for dlopen-ing libcapstone.so
perf llvm: Support for dlopen-ing libLLVM.so
