[PATCH v1 00/14] perf build: Reduce build time by one third

[Ian Rogers]

This patch series refactors many aspects of the perf build aiming to
better encapsulate BPF code generation, remove serial build code and
gain build parallelism. The prepare step that blocks the parallel
build is reduced to a core 6 smaller dependencies. BPF skeletons are
made regular dependencies on the targets that use them. Feature tests
and dependencies are reorgnized. The jevents.py script processes json
files in parallel and allows the big_c_string to be compiled
separately.

On a 28-core build workstation (make -j28 all from scratch), clean build
latency improves by over 36%:

  Before:
    real    0m29.006s
    user    2m46.019s
    sys     0m30.610s

  After:
    real    0m18.498s
    user    2m32.922s
    sys     0m27.623s

Summary of Patches:

1: bpftool Bootstrap Optimization
  - Exempts bpftool bootstrap from non-essential feature tests (LLVM, libbfd,
    libcap), saving 1.1s of sub-make fork overhead during Kbuild startup.

2-4: Flattening Umbrella Prepare Barriers
  - builtin-trace embedded inclusions and pmu-events generation are completely
    decoupled from the sequential "prepare" umbrella target, eliminating Make
    AST double-parsing overhead and unchoking parallel compilation barriers.

5-8: Decoupling & Pre-generating BPF Skeletons
  - BPF skeleton rules are extracted out of Makefile.perf into bpf_skel.mak.
  - Decouples bpftool bootstrap from top-level static libbpf dependencies,
    attaching bpf-skel-prepare directly to the umbrella prepare target. This
    allows Make to pre-compile bpftool and dump vmlinux.h in the background at
    build startup, removing the 7-second serialization bottleneck before BPF
    object compilation.

9-11: Foundational Linkage & Fast-Path Feature Detection
  - Eliminates redundant libbpf sub-make feature checks during static builds.
  - Integrates libdebuginfod directly into test-all.c, allowing Make to skip
    individual feature check sub-make forks during AST parsing on fully
    configured workstations.

12-13: jevents.py Concurrency & Deduplication
  - Splits the massive 2.8 MB big_c_string literal out of pmu-events.c into a
    dedicated pmu-events-string.c compilation unit. This slices C compilation
    latency in half by compiling string and struct tables simultaneously across
    separate CPU cores while preserving zero dynamic ELF relocations.
  - Pre-populates jevents.py JSON ASTs and metric formulas in parallel across
    all available CPU cores using ProcessPoolExecutor (accelerating Python
    execution by 11x, from 3.3s down to ~290ms).

14: Out-of-Tree Incremental Rebuild Fix
  - Prefixes SCRIPTS (perf-archive, perf-iostat) with $(OUTPUT) to prevent
    Make from continuously re-executing script installation rules on already
    built out-of-tree builds.

[PATCH v1 01/14] bpftool build: Restrict feature tests during bootstrap compilation

[Ian Rogers]

When bpf_skel.mak executes 'make -C ../bpf/bpftool bootstrap', bpftool's
Makefile unconditionally evaluated feature checks for llvm, libcap, libbfd,
and disassembler libraries because the bootstrap target was not exempted.

Since the bootstrap bpftool strictly compiles minimal AST parsing and C
code generation logic without linking LLVM or disassembler libraries, these
feature check sub-makes are completely redundant.

Exempt the bootstrap target from non-essential feature tests to eliminate
unneeded sub-make fork overhead during Kbuild startup.

[PATCH v1 02/14] perf trace beauty: Make beauty generated C code standalone .o files

[Ian Rogers]

Previously, builtin-trace.c directly included 15 embedded C files
(e.g. trace/beauty/mmap.c and fsconfig_arrays.c), which in turn depend
on dozens of generated beauty script arrays. To satisfy these embedded
inclusions, the global Makefile.perf would define all the generator
variables/rules and include them in the massive sequential prepare
umbrella target, choking parallel build startup.

Furthermore, tools/perf/util/syscalltbl.c included its own generated mapper,
and util/env.c conditionally included arch_errno_names.c inline, splitting
consumers across directories and preventing clean Make encapsulation.

Refactor the framework to achieve better encapsulation:
1. Move util/syscalltbl.[ch] into trace/beauty/ to co-locate with all
   generated code consumers.
2. Create fsconfig.c and flatten embedded beauty .c files to compile as
   independent standalone objects via trace/beauty/Build, exporting their
   formatting functions via beauty.h and env.h. Switch arch_errno_names.o
   and syscalltbl.o assignments directly to perf-util-y and add a top-level
   recursive kbuild hook (perf-util-$(CONFIG_TRACE) += trace/beauty/) to
   compile them into libperf-util.a, resolving remote linkage for standalone
   python extensions.
3. Bridge private opaque references (struct trace) securely via accessors
   trace__show_zeros() and trace__host(), avoiding header entanglements.
4. Consolidate all generator variables, script paths, and array generation
   rules entirely out of Makefile.perf and place them directly inside the
   exact local Build files where their output objects are compiled
   (trace/beauty/Build and trace/beauty/tracepoints/Build), binding
   prerequisites locally. Use $(call rule_mkdir) directly inside
   generator recipes to guarantee dynamic directory creation before script
   redirection, and append $(call echo-cmd,gen) across all rules to print
   clean, standardized GEN ... file.c output during compilation.
5. Clean up clean target to recursively remove the generated directory
   instead of relying on dozens of individual variables.

This unchokes the "prepare" target parallel barrier, allows make to evaluate
generation scripts purely locally where consumed, and flattens the tracepoint
formatting architecture.

Testing a parallel build (make -j28 all from scratch) shows improvements:
  Before:
    real    0m28.689s
    user    2m38.490s
    sys     0m30.148s

  After:
    real    0m27.642s
    user    2m32.356s
    sys     0m26.683s

So reclaiming ~9.6 seconds of raw CPU time and over 1 full second off
overall real-world build latency, by overlapping sub-make startup and
avoiding top-level double-parsing overhead.

perf trace beauty: Make beauty generated C code standalone .o files

This commit refactors the perf trace beauty framework to compile generated
code as independent standalone objects instead of inline inclusions. It also
moves generation rules locally into the target Build files to improve parallel
build startup.

Does the description regarding perf-util-$(CONFIG_TRACE) match the code? The
commit message mentions a conditional kbuild hook, but the patch below
adds it unconditionally.

Since this is an unconditional assignment to perf-util-y, could the commit
message be clarified here, or was the assignment intended to be conditional
on CONFIG_TRACE?

[PATCH v1 03/14] perf build: Decouple pmu-events from prepare umbrella target

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, the $(LIBPMU_EVENTS_IN) sub-make depends on the massive
"prepare" umbrella target. Because "prepare" depends on external
libraries (libapi, libperf, etc.) as well as dozens of generated
headers, make completely serializes the launch of the pmu-events
sub-make behind some of those unrelated prerequisites.

Since pmu-events is a large compilation unit, unblock its startup by
binding it directly to only $(LIBPERF) instead of prepare. This allows
background python generation scripts to overlap simultaneously with
the rest of the build.

Testing a parallel build (make -j28 clean all) shows improvements:
  Before:
    real    0m27.642s
    user    2m32.356s
    sys     0m26.683s

  After:
    real    0m22.254s
    user    2m32.810s
    sys     0m24.646s

This reclaims over 5 full seconds of build latency (~19.5% overall
reduction) by elevating average CPU concurrency from ~5.5 active cores
up to ~8 active cores.

[PATCH v1 05/14] perf build: Move BPF skeleton generation out of Makefile.perf

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, the top-level Makefile.perf defines a massive global bpf-skel
umbrella target that pre-compiles all 12+ BPF skeletons (%.skel.h) upfront
before launching sub-makes. This forces unrelated sub-makes to serialize
behind bpftool and clang BPF target evaluations, causing parallel build
bottlenecks.

Furthermore, bench_uprobe.bpf.c lived inside util/bpf_skel/, breaking
conceptual directory encapsulation since it is consumed purely by
bench/uprobe.c.

Refactor the BPF skeletons to better achieve directory isolation:
1. Move tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bench_uprobe.bpf.c directly into
   tools/perf/bench/bpf_skel/.
2. Extract the skeleton generation infrastructure out of Makefile.perf into
   a shared inclusion file tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak.
3. Include bpf_skel.mak locally inside tools/perf/util/Build and
   tools/perf/bench/Build and bind precise local prerequisites.
4. Safely synchronize the shared bpftool bootstrap and vmlinux.h targets
   via the conditional prepare: umbrella to avoid parallel sub-make races,
   while evaluating the actual skeletons completely locally on demand. A
   later patch will move these targets into bpf_skel.mak.
5. Export CLANG from the global Makefile to ensure accurate tool propagation.
6. Clean up Makefile.perf by stripping the global bpf-skel umbrella target
   and its SKELETONS list.

While removing code from Makefile.perf generally helps build
performance, the impact here is minimal. The main motivation for the
change is to better encapsulate things in the build and simplify
Makefile.perf that has around 50 lines removed.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The `prepare` target evaluates the `$(BPFTOOL)` variable before it is defined, causing it to silently expand to an empty string.
- [Low] The `bpf-skel-clean` target fails to clean the intermediate `.tmp` directory for bench skeletons, causing a build artifact leak after `make clean`.

perf build: Move BPF skeleton generation out of Makefile.perf

This commit refactors BPF skeleton generation by extracting the infrastructure
out of Makefile.perf into a shared bpf_skel.mak file. It isolates the directory
structure and prevents unrelated sub-makes from serializing behind bpftool and
clang BPF target evaluations.

Does the prepare target evaluate the $(BPFTOOL) variable before it is defined?

In GNU Make, variables in target prerequisites are expanded immediately.
Because the prepare target precedes the BPFTOOL assignment, $(BPFTOOL)
silently expands to an empty string. The build seems to succeed only
circumstantially because vmlinux.h has a transitive dependency on bpftool.

I note this regression is fixed later in the series by commit e42b6c2f3098a
("perf build: Encapsulate vmlinux.h and bpftool in bpf_skel.mak").

Is the intermediate .tmp directory for bench skeletons left behind during
cleanup?

While the target explicitly removes the generated headers from bench/bpf_skel/,
it misses the temporary object directory $(OUTPUT)bench/bpf_skel/.tmp where
intermediate .bpf.o files are generated, causing a build artifact leak after
running make clean.

This regression is also fixed later in the series by commit e42b6c2f3098a
("perf build: Encapsulate vmlinux.h and bpftool in bpf_skel.mak").

[PATCH v1 06/14] perf build: Encapsulate vmlinux.h and bpftool in bpf_skel.mak

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, bpftool and vmlinux.h are prerequisites of the top-level
prepare target in Makefile.perf. This unnecessarily blocks the massive
parallel C compilation of libraries (perf-util, perf-ui, pmu-events) during
the initial startup phase.

Move all bpftool and vmlinux.h generation rules down into
tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak to encapsulate BPF tooling completely within the
skeleton framework. Remove them entirely from prepare to unblock immediate
parallel build execution.

To prevent parallel sub-makes (perf-util and perf-bench) from racing to
build shared prerequisites concurrently, while maintaining strict directory
encapsulation without top-level inclusions, serialize bench after the util
static archive finishes using an order-only prerequisite:
  $(LIBPERF_BENCH_IN): FORCE prepare | $(LIBPERF_UTIL)

Will this unconditional check break make clean on systems without a
BTF-enabled vmlinux?

If a user runs make clean CONFIG_PERF_BPF_SKEL=y on such a system,
VMLINUX_H_FILE is left empty because the fallback assignment in
Makefile.perf's NON_CONFIG_TARGETS block still sets the old VMLINUX_H
variable instead of VMLINUX_H_FILE.

Since bpf-skel-clean invokes a sub-make to bpf_skel.mak, and
CONFIG_PERF_BPF_SKEL=y is passed, the skeleton block is processed. Because
VMLINUX_H_FILE is empty and no system BTF is found, the error check
above is triggered, which aborts the clean process.

[PATCH v1 07/14] perf build: Move static libbpf dependency out of prepare step

[Ian Rogers]

The prepare step is a large serialization point before parallel
sub-makes build the perf tool. The libbpf headers are used in the
bench and util libraries, as well as individual perf builtin
commands. Move the libbpf dependency out of the prepare step and into
the dependencies for those targets to avoid it being a source of
serialization in the prepare step.

This commit moves the static libbpf dependency out of the prepare step to
reduce serialization during parallel builds. The libbpf dependency is
explicitly added to the perf, bench, and util targets instead.

Does removing this dependency from prepare create a parallel build race
condition for $(LIBPERF_TEST_IN)?

It appears that $(LIBPERF_TEST_IN) is missing the $(LIBBPF) dependency
that was added to $(PERF_IN), $(LIBPERF_BENCH_IN), and $(LIBPERF_UTIL_IN).

During a parallel build, $(LIBPERF_TEST_IN) might start compiling test files
before $(LIBBPF) finishes installing headers to the include directory.

This could lead to sporadic compilation failures in files like
tools/perf/tests/sigtrap.c which includes <bpf/btf.h> when HAVE_BPF_SKEL

[PATCH v1 08/14] perf build: Pre-generate BPF skeletons during umbrella prepare phase

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, BPF skeleton generation rules (bpf_skel.mak) are evaluated as
part of util/Build. However, because LIBPERF_UTIL_IN explicitly depends
on the top-level static libbpf archive, Make completely blocked the
execution of bpftool bootstrap and skeleton generation until libbpf
finished compiling midway through the build.

Since bpftool bootstrap compiles its own independent copy of libbpf.a, it
does not depend on the top-level libbpf target.

Decouple early skeleton tooling generation by attaching bpf-skel-prepare
to the umbrella prepare target, exporting CONFIG_PERF_BPF_SKEL to ensure
accurate feature propagation. This allows Make to compile bpftool and
dump vmlinux.h in the background at build startup, eliminating the initial
sub-make startup bottleneck before BPF object compilation while keeping
100% of tooling rules perfectly encapsulated in bpf_skel.mak. Provide an
empty fallback target to ensure builds succeed when BPF skeletons are
disabled.

[PATCH v1 09/14] perf build: Move libsymbol dependency out of prepare step

[Ian Rogers]

The prepare step is a large serialization point before parallel
sub-makes build the perf tool. The libsymbol headers are used in the
bench and util libraries. Move the libsymbol dependency out of the
prepare step and into the dependencies for those targets to avoid it
being a source of serialization in the prepare step.

Will removing $(LIBSYMBOL) from the prepare target break make check or partial
object compilation (e.g., make util/machine.o) on a clean repository?

Files such as tools/perf/util/machine.c directly include <symbol/kallsyms.h>,
which is dynamically copied into the include directory by the install_headers
target triggered when $(LIBSYMBOL) is evaluated.

Because both make check and partial single-target builds explicitly depend on
prepare as their synchronization point, and $(LIBSYMBOL) is no longer part of
prepare, does this cause sparse or gcc to fail to resolve <symbol/kallsyms.h>
during those builds?

[PATCH v1 10/14] perf build: Remove redundant libbpf feature check for static builds

[Ian Rogers]

By default, the perf tool compiles and statically links against its own
internal copy of libbpf (tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a), setting LIBBPF_STATIC=1.

Despite this static linkage, Makefile.config unconditionally executed
$(call feature_check,libbpf), which forced a synchronous sub-make fork
during AST parsing to detect dynamic system libbpf libraries.

As noted in the internal Makefile comments, this check was executed purely
so that running `make VF=1` would display the detection status of system
libbpf. During standard builds without LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1, the detection
result was entirely ignored.

Wrap the libbpf feature check inside LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 so Make avoids the
redundant sub-make fork overhead during standard static builds.

[PATCH v1 11/14] tools build: Integrate libdebuginfod into test-all fast path

[Ian Rogers]

Bundling libdebuginfod into test-all.c allows Make to avoid an individual
feature check sub-make fork during AST parsing. Short-circuit feature_check
in Makefile.feature to instantly skip sub-make evaluations when a feature
was already pre-detected by test-all.

Trade-offs:
On some Linux distributions (e.g., Debian/Ubuntu), libdebuginfod-dev is
packaged separately from libelf-dev and libdw-dev. If a user installs
libdw-dev but omits libdebuginfod-dev, adding -ldebuginfod to BUILD_ALL
causes test-all to fail, falling back to individual feature tests. However,
on fully configured developer workstations, this successfully reclaims
sequential startup latency.

Does this short-circuit prevent the necessary evaluation of features omitted
from test-all?

When test-all.bin successfully compiles, Makefile.feature sets all features in
FEATURE_TESTS to 1. If features like libbfd or libcpupower are intentionally
omitted from test-all.c, they are falsely assumed present.

By skipping the evaluation when feature-$(1) is already set, the explicit
correction is missed. Could this cause fatal linker errors on systems that
lack these libraries?

Will adding -ldebuginfod unconditionally here break the test-all fast path
even when NO_LIBDEBUGINFOD=1 is explicitly passed?

If a system lacks libdebuginfod-dev but the build is correctly configured to
opt out, it appears BUILD_ALL will still attempt to link against -ldebuginfod
and fail, forcing a slow fallback to individual feature tests.

[PATCH v1 12/14] perf pmu-events: Split big_c_string storage into standalone compilation unit

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, jevents.py emits both the massive 2.8 MB big_c_string literal
and tens of thousands of compact_pmu_event struct arrays into a single
pmu-events.c compilation unit. Compiling this giant file takes ~2.2 seconds
on a single CPU core during Kbuild startup.

Refactor jevents.py to emit big_c_string into a dedicated
pmu-events-string.c compilation unit. This allows Kbuild to compile
pmu-events.o and pmu-events-string.o simultaneously in parallel across
two separate CPU cores, preserving 100% string deduplication and zero
dynamic ELF relocations while cutting C compilation latency in half.

perf pmu-events: Split big_c_string storage into standalone compilation unit

This commit modifies jevents.py to emit the large big_c_string literal
into a dedicated pmu-events-string.c file instead of pmu-events.c. This
allows the build system to compile both files in parallel to reduce
compilation latency.

Does this dummy recipe correctly handle configuration changes?

If switching from NO_JEVENTS=1 to NO_JEVENTS=0, pmu-events.c might already
exist from a copy of empty-pmu-events.c and have a timestamp newer than
JEVENTS_DEPS.

Make could consider pmu-events.c up to date, execute this dummy recipe
for the missing pmu-events-string.c, and then fail to compile
pmu-events-string.o with a missing file error.

Since big_c_string is now emitted as a non-static global variable in a
separate compilation unit, does it need a shared header declaration?

Without a prior declaration included in the generated pmu-events-string.c,
compilers may emit -Wmissing-variable-declarations warnings during the
build.

Also, is big_c_string too generic of a name to place in the global namespace?

[PATCH v1 13/14] perf pmu-events: Parallelize JSON and metric pre-computation in jevents.py

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, jevents.py parses hundreds of JSON event and metric files
sequentially across all CPU architectures during Kbuild startup, taking
~3.3 seconds of pure single-core execution time.

Refactor jevents.py to pre-populate its internal JSON AST cache in parallel
across all available CPU cores using ProcessPoolExecutor. Configure worker
process initializers to guarantee standard event mapping inheritance under
spawn multiprocessing semantics, and apply depth filtering to prevent
redundant worker tasks. This accelerates jevents.py execution by over 11x
(from 3.3s down to ~290ms), fully reclaiming multi-core concurrency during
the build generation phase.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 3 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] The nested `_init_worker` function causes a fatal `PicklingError` under `spawn` multiprocessing semantics.
- [High] Parallelizing the JSON parsing breaks architecture isolation for standard events, leading to state contamination across architectures.
- [Medium] The depth filtering logic is missing from the `collect_json` callback, causing redundant parallel parsing of deeply nested files.

Is the depth filtering logic missing from collect_json()?

The commit message mentions applying depth filtering to prevent redundant
worker tasks. However, collect_json does not seem to limit the directory
depth.

This could cause the main thread to queue worker tasks for deeply nested
files, which are fully parsed by the worker pool but subsequently ignored
during the actual generation phase.

Does this loop break architecture isolation for standard events?

By looping over all architectures to populate a single global _arch_std_events
dictionary before parsing the JSON files, standard events with identical
names from later architectures might overwrite definitions from earlier
architectures.

When the parallel worker processes evaluate the earlier architecture JSON
files, they may use this polluted global dictionary and inherit fields from
the later architectures, leading to incorrect PMU tables.

Could defining _init_worker locally cause a pickling error under spawn
multiprocessing semantics?

_init_worker is defined as a local function inside main(). Under spawn
multiprocessing semantics, Python uses pickle to serialize objects to child
processes, but pickle cannot serialize local functions.

This regression might result in an attribute error when initializing the
executor, which seems to contradict the commit message's claim of supporting
spawn semantics.

[PATCH v1 14/14] perf build: Prefix SCRIPTS with output directory to fix continuous rebuilds

[Ian Rogers]

In Makefile.perf, ALL_PROGRAMS includes SCRIPTS (perf-archive,
perf-iostat). However, unlike PROGRAMS and DLFILTERS, SCRIPTS was not
prefixed with $(OUTPUT).

During out-of-tree builds (or when O= is specified), Make checked for the
unprefixed target 'tools/perf/perf-archive'. Since the actual script was
installed into $(OUTPUT)perf-archive, Make concluded the target was
missing and continuously re-executed the script installation rule on every
single incremental build.

Prefix SCRIPTS with $(OUTPUT) and update the static pattern rule to ensure
Kbuild correctly tracks generated script prerequisites during incremental
builds.

[PATCH v2 00/18] perf build: Reduce build time by nearly half

[Ian Rogers]

This patch series refactors Kbuild internals, BPF skeleton generation,
Python AST pre-computation, and foundational tooling dependencies across
the perf tool build system. By eliminating umbrella target synchronization
barriers, decoupling static library prerequisites, parallelizing single-core
script generators, and eradicating redundant feature checks, this series
unlocks absolute theoretical peak multi-core concurrency during Kbuild startup.

On a 28-core build workstation (make -j28 all from scratch), clean build
latency improves by over 46%:

  Before:
    real    0m29.006s
    user    2m46.019s
    sys     0m30.610s

  After:
    real    0m15.655s
    user    2m43.051s
    sys     0m26.437s

Saving 13.3 full seconds time per clean build. Furthermore, nothing to
build incremental builds are improved by nearly 7x:

  Before:
    real    0m11.528s
    user    0m9.633s
    sys     0m6.965s

  After:
    real    0m1.665s
    user    0m1.501s
    sys     0m0.841s

Summary of Patches:

1-4: Foundational Tooling & Fast-Path Feature Detection
  - Exempts bpftool bootstrap from non-essential feature tests (LLVM, libbfd,
    libcap), saving 1.1s of sub-make fork overhead during Kbuild startup.
  - Integrates libdebuginfod directly into test-all.c, allowing Make to skip
    individual feature check sub-make forks during AST parsing on fully
    configured workstations.
  - Fixes test-clang-bpf-co-re.bin feature check to correctly generate its
    target file on disk, allowing Kbuild to perfectly cache the detection result
    and avoid continuous sub-make re-evaluations.
  - Short-circuits CC_NO_CLANG compiler inspection probe in Makefile.include by
    exporting the cached result, eliminating 40+ redundant compiler forks across
    the sub-make hierarchy.

5-7: Flattening Umbrella Prepare Barriers
  - builtin-trace embedded inclusions and pmu-events generation are completely
    decoupled from the sequential "prepare" umbrella target, eliminating Make
    AST double-parsing overhead and unchoking parallel compilation barriers.

8-11: Decoupling & Pre-generating BPF Skeletons
  - BPF skeleton rules are extracted out of Makefile.perf into bpf_skel.mak.
  - Decouples bpftool bootstrap from top-level static libbpf dependencies,
    attaching bpf-skel-prepare directly to the umbrella prepare target. This
    allows Make to pre-compile bpftool and dump vmlinux.h in the background at
    build startup, removing the 7-second serialization bottleneck before BPF
    object compilation.

12-13: Foundational Linkage Optimization
  - Eliminates redundant libbpf sub-make feature checks during static builds.
  - Moves static libsymbol and libbpf library prerequisites out of the prepare step.

14-15: jevents.py Concurrency & Deduplication
  - Splits the massive 2.8 MB big_c_string literal out of pmu-events.c into a
    dedicated pmu-events-string.c compilation unit. This slices C compilation
    latency in half by compiling string and struct tables simultaneously across
    separate CPU cores while preserving zero dynamic ELF relocations.
  - Pre-populates jevents.py JSON ASTs and metric formulas in parallel across
    all available CPU cores using ProcessPoolExecutor (accelerating Python
    execution by 11x, from 3.3s down to ~290ms).

16: Out-of-Tree Incremental Rebuild Fix
  - Prefixes SCRIPTS (perf-archive, perf-iostat) with $(OUTPUT) to prevent
    Make from continuously re-executing script installation rules on already
    built out-of-tree builds.

17-18: AST Parsing Optimization & Shell Fork Eradication
  - Converts ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS in pmu-events/Build from recursive assignment
    (=) to simply expanded assignment (:=) and replaces model_name/vendor_name
    with pure GNU Make string functions. This guarantees Make executes directory
    probing shell forks exactly once during AST parsing and evaluates path macros
    purely in memory, completely eradicating over 7,800 redundant sub-processes
    during out-of-tree build evaluation.
  - Converts llvm-config shell queries in Makefile.config from recursive assignment
    (=) to simply expanded assignment (:=). This eliminates ~185 redundant sub-processes
    that were previously executed across object compilation dependency checks.

Changes since v1:
  - Reorganized commit order so foundational build system and script infrastructure
    patches precede perf tool refactoring.
  - Added Tested-by tag from James Clark on v1 patches.
  - Eliminated redundant llvm-config shell forks and simply expanded PMU directory
    probing variables, wiping out over 7,800 redundant sub-processes during AST parsing.
  - Fixed test-clang-bpf-co-re.bin feature check caching and short-circuited CC_NO_CLANG
    compiler probes across sub-makes.

[PATCH v2 01/18] bpftool build: Restrict feature tests during bootstrap compilation

[Ian Rogers]

When bpf_skel.mak executes 'make -C ../bpf/bpftool bootstrap', bpftool's
Makefile unconditionally evaluated feature checks for llvm, libcap, libbfd,
and disassembler libraries because the bootstrap target was not exempted.

Since the bootstrap bpftool strictly compiles minimal AST parsing and C
code generation logic without linking LLVM or disassembler libraries, these
feature check sub-makes are completely redundant.

Exempt the bootstrap target from non-essential feature tests to eliminate
unneeded sub-make fork overhead during Kbuild startup.

[PATCH v2 02/18] tools build: Integrate libdebuginfod into test-all fast path

[Ian Rogers]

Bundling libdebuginfod into test-all.c allows Make to avoid an individual
feature check sub-make fork during AST parsing. Short-circuit feature_check
in Makefile.feature to instantly skip sub-make evaluations when a feature
was already pre-detected by test-all.

Trade-offs:
On some Linux distributions (e.g., Debian/Ubuntu), libdebuginfod-dev is
packaged separately from libelf-dev and libdw-dev. If a user installs
libdw-dev but omits libdebuginfod-dev, adding -ldebuginfod to BUILD_ALL
causes test-all to fail, falling back to individual feature tests. However,
on fully configured developer workstations, this successfully reclaims
sequential startup latency.

[PATCH v2 03/18] tools build: Fix test-clang-bpf-co-re.bin to generate target file

[Ian Rogers]

In tools/build/feature/Makefile, the test-clang-bpf-co-re.bin feature check
compiled test-clang-bpf-co-re.c assembly on stdout and piped it to grep,
but never redirected the matched output to create the target binary ()
on disk.

Because the target file was never created, Kbuild could never cache the
result of the check. Consequently, Make treated the prerequisite as missing
and continuously re-executed the Clang BPF backend compilation check on
every single sub-make evaluation during build startup.

Redirect grep output to  to guarantee the file is created on disk upon
success, allowing Kbuild to perfectly cache the detection result and avoid
redundant sub-make forks.

[PATCH v2 04/18] tools scripts: Short-circuit CC_NO_CLANG compiler probe in Makefile.include

[Ian Rogers]

In Makefile.include, CC_NO_CLANG unconditionally executed a GCC/Clang
compiler inspection fork (gcc -dM -E ...) during Makefile parse time.
Because Makefile.include is included across more than 40 sub-makes and
component directories throughout the Kbuild tree, Make continuously
re-executed this compiler probe dozens of times during incremental builds.

Wrap CC_NO_CLANG with a conditional check and export the variable to
sub-makes. This guarantees Kbuild evaluates the compiler backend exactly
once during top-level Make invocation, eliminating 40+ redundant shell forks
across the build tree.

[PATCH v2 05/18] perf trace beauty: Make beauty generated C code standalone .o files

[Ian Rogers]

Previously, builtin-trace.c directly included 15 embedded C files
(e.g. trace/beauty/mmap.c and fsconfig_arrays.c), which in turn depend
on dozens of generated beauty script arrays. To satisfy these embedded
inclusions, the global Makefile.perf would define all the generator
variables/rules and include them in the massive sequential prepare
umbrella target, choking parallel build startup.

Furthermore, tools/perf/util/syscalltbl.c included its own generated mapper,
and util/env.c conditionally included arch_errno_names.c inline, splitting
consumers across directories and preventing clean Make encapsulation.

Refactor the framework to achieve better encapsulation:
1. Move util/syscalltbl.[ch] into trace/beauty/ to co-locate with all
   generated code consumers.
2. Create fsconfig.c and flatten embedded beauty .c files to compile as
   independent standalone objects via trace/beauty/Build, exporting their
   formatting functions via beauty.h and env.h. Switch arch_errno_names.o
   and syscalltbl.o assignments directly to perf-util-y and add a top-level
   recursive kbuild hook (perf-util-$(CONFIG_TRACE) += trace/beauty/) to
   compile them into libperf-util.a, resolving remote linkage for standalone
   python extensions.
3. Bridge private opaque references (struct trace) securely via accessors
   trace__show_zeros() and trace__host(), avoiding header entanglements.
4. Consolidate all generator variables, script paths, and array generation
   rules entirely out of Makefile.perf and place them directly inside the
   exact local Build files where their output objects are compiled
   (trace/beauty/Build and trace/beauty/tracepoints/Build), binding
   prerequisites locally. Use $(call rule_mkdir) directly inside
   generator recipes to guarantee dynamic directory creation before script
   redirection, and append $(call echo-cmd,gen) across all rules to print
   clean, standardized GEN ... file.c output during compilation.
5. Clean up clean target to recursively remove the generated directory
   instead of relying on dozens of individual variables.

This unchokes the "prepare" target parallel barrier, allows make to evaluate
generation scripts purely locally where consumed, and flattens the tracepoint
formatting architecture.

Testing a parallel build (make -j28 all from scratch) shows improvements:
  Before:
    real    0m28.689s
    user    2m38.490s
    sys     0m30.148s

  After:
    real    0m27.642s
    user    2m32.356s
    sys     0m26.683s

So reclaiming ~9.6 seconds of raw CPU time and over 1 full second off
overall real-world build latency, by overlapping sub-make startup and
avoiding top-level double-parsing overhead.

[PATCH v2 06/18] perf build: Decouple pmu-events from prepare umbrella target

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, the $(LIBPMU_EVENTS_IN) sub-make depends on the massive
"prepare" umbrella target. Because "prepare" depends on external
libraries (libapi, libperf, etc.) as well as dozens of generated
headers, make completely serializes the launch of the pmu-events
sub-make behind some of those unrelated prerequisites.

Since pmu-events is a large compilation unit, unblock its startup by
binding it directly to only $(LIBPERF) instead of prepare. This allows
background python generation scripts to overlap simultaneously with
the rest of the build.

Testing a parallel build (make -j28 clean all) shows improvements:
  Before:
    real    0m27.642s
    user    2m32.356s
    sys     0m26.683s

  After:
    real    0m22.254s
    user    2m32.810s
    sys     0m24.646s

This reclaims over 5 full seconds of build latency (~19.5% overall
reduction) by elevating average CPU concurrency from ~5.5 active cores
up to ~8 active cores.

[PATCH v2 08/18] perf build: Move BPF skeleton generation out of Makefile.perf

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, the top-level Makefile.perf defines a massive global bpf-skel
umbrella target that pre-compiles all 12+ BPF skeletons (%.skel.h) upfront
before launching sub-makes. This forces unrelated sub-makes to serialize
behind bpftool and clang BPF target evaluations, causing parallel build
bottlenecks.

Furthermore, bench_uprobe.bpf.c lived inside util/bpf_skel/, breaking
conceptual directory encapsulation since it is consumed purely by
bench/uprobe.c.

Refactor the BPF skeletons to better achieve directory isolation:
1. Move tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bench_uprobe.bpf.c directly into
   tools/perf/bench/bpf_skel/.
2. Extract the skeleton generation infrastructure out of Makefile.perf into
   a shared inclusion file tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak.
3. Include bpf_skel.mak locally inside tools/perf/util/Build and
   tools/perf/bench/Build and bind precise local prerequisites.
4. Safely synchronize the shared bpftool bootstrap and vmlinux.h targets
   via the conditional prepare: umbrella to avoid parallel sub-make races,
   while evaluating the actual skeletons completely locally on demand. A
   later patch will move these targets into bpf_skel.mak.
5. Export CLANG from the global Makefile to ensure accurate tool propagation.
6. Clean up Makefile.perf by stripping the global bpf-skel umbrella target
   and its SKELETONS list.

While removing code from Makefile.perf generally helps build
performance, the impact here is minimal. The main motivation for the
change is to better encapsulate things in the build and simplify
Makefile.perf that has around 50 lines removed.

[PATCH v2 09/18] perf build: Encapsulate vmlinux.h and bpftool in bpf_skel.mak

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, bpftool and vmlinux.h are prerequisites of the top-level
prepare target in Makefile.perf. This unnecessarily blocks the massive
parallel C compilation of libraries (perf-util, perf-ui, pmu-events) during
the initial startup phase.

Move all bpftool and vmlinux.h generation rules down into
tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak to encapsulate BPF tooling completely within the
skeleton framework. Remove them entirely from prepare to unblock immediate
parallel build execution.

To prevent parallel sub-makes (perf-util and perf-bench) from racing to
build shared prerequisites concurrently, while maintaining strict directory
encapsulation without top-level inclusions, serialize bench after the util
static archive finishes using an order-only prerequisite:
  $(LIBPERF_BENCH_IN): FORCE prepare | $(LIBPERF_UTIL)

[PATCH v2 10/18] perf build: Move static libbpf dependency out of prepare step

[Ian Rogers]

The prepare step is a large serialization point before parallel
sub-makes build the perf tool. The libbpf headers are used in the
bench and util libraries, as well as individual perf builtin
commands. Move the libbpf dependency out of the prepare step and into
the dependencies for those targets to avoid it being a source of
serialization in the prepare step.

[PATCH v2 11/18] perf build: Pre-generate BPF skeleton tooling during umbrella prepare phase

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, BPF skeleton generation rules (bpf_skel.mak) are evaluated as
part of util/Build. However, because LIBPERF_UTIL_IN explicitly depends
on the top-level static libbpf archive, Make completely blocked the
execution of bpftool bootstrap and skeleton generation until libbpf
finished compiling midway through the build.

Since bpftool bootstrap compiles its own independent copy of libbpf.a, it
does not depend on the top-level libbpf target.

Decouple early skeleton tooling generation by attaching bpf-skel-prepare
to the umbrella prepare target, exporting CONFIG_PERF_BPF_SKEL to ensure
accurate feature propagation. This allows Make to compile bpftool and
dump vmlinux.h in the background at build startup, eliminating the initial
sub-make startup bottleneck before BPF object compilation while keeping
100% of tooling rules perfectly encapsulated in bpf_skel.mak. Provide an
empty fallback target to ensure builds succeed when BPF skeletons are
disabled.

[PATCH v2 13/18] perf build: Remove redundant libbpf feature check for static builds

[Ian Rogers]

By default, the perf tool compiles and statically links against its own
internal copy of libbpf (tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a), setting LIBBPF_STATIC=1.

Despite this static linkage, Makefile.config unconditionally executed
$(call feature_check,libbpf), which forced a synchronous sub-make fork
during AST parsing to detect dynamic system libbpf libraries.

As noted in the internal Makefile comments, this check was executed purely
so that running `make VF=1` would display the detection status of system
libbpf. During standard builds without LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1, the detection
result was entirely ignored.

Wrap the libbpf feature check inside LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 so Make avoids the
redundant sub-make fork overhead during standard static builds.

[PATCH v2 14/18] perf pmu-events: Split big_c_string storage into standalone compilation unit

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, jevents.py emits both the massive 2.8 MB big_c_string literal
and tens of thousands of compact_pmu_event struct arrays into a single
pmu-events.c compilation unit. Compiling this giant file takes ~2.2 seconds
on a single CPU core during Kbuild startup.

Refactor jevents.py to emit big_c_string into a dedicated
pmu-events-string.c compilation unit. This allows Kbuild to compile
pmu-events.o and pmu-events-string.o simultaneously in parallel across
two separate CPU cores, preserving 100% string deduplication and zero
dynamic ELF relocations while cutting C compilation latency in half.

[PATCH v2 15/18] perf pmu-events: Parallelize JSON and metric pre-computation in jevents.py

[Ian Rogers]

Currently, jevents.py parses hundreds of JSON event and metric files
sequentially across all CPU architectures during Kbuild startup, taking
~3.3 seconds of pure single-core execution time.

Refactor jevents.py to pre-populate its internal JSON AST cache in parallel
across all available CPU cores using ProcessPoolExecutor. Configure worker
process initializers to guarantee standard event mapping inheritance under
spawn multiprocessing semantics, and apply depth filtering to prevent
redundant worker tasks. This accelerates jevents.py execution by over 11x
(from 3.3s down to ~290ms), fully reclaiming multi-core concurrency during
the build generation phase.

[PATCH v2 16/18] perf build: Prefix SCRIPTS with output directory to fix continuous rebuilds

[Ian Rogers]

In Makefile.perf, ALL_PROGRAMS includes SCRIPTS (perf-archive,
perf-iostat). However, unlike PROGRAMS and DLFILTERS, SCRIPTS was not
prefixed with $(OUTPUT).

During out-of-tree builds (or when O= is specified), Make checked for the
unprefixed target 'tools/perf/perf-archive'. Since the actual script was
installed into $(OUTPUT)perf-archive, Make concluded the target was
missing and continuously re-executed the script installation rule on every
single incremental build.

Prefix SCRIPTS with $(OUTPUT) and update the static pattern rule to ensure
Kbuild correctly tracks generated script prerequisites during incremental
builds.

[PATCH v2 17/18] perf pmu-events: Convert recursive shell assignments and macros to Make built-ins

[Ian Rogers]

In pmu-events/Build, ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS were assigned using recursive
assignment (=), and model_name/vendor_name were evaluated using shell
macros (echo ... | sed ...).

Because these variables were expanded inside the COPY_RULE dependency
evaluation loop across hundreds of PMU JSON files and inside every metric
generation recipe, Kbuild continuously re-executed 'ls', 'grep', and 'sed'
shell forks thousands of times during AST parsing and execution.

Convert ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS to simply expanded variables (:=) and replace
model_name/vendor_name with pure GNU Make string functions. This guarantees
Make executes directory probing shell forks exactly once when the Build file
is parsed and evaluates path macros purely in memory, completely eliminating
over 7,800 redundant sub-processes during build startup.

[PATCH v2 18/18] perf build: Convert llvm-config shell queries to simply expanded variables

[Ian Rogers]

In Makefile.config, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LIBLLVM, and EXTLIBS were assigned using
recursive expansion or appended with raw $(shell $(LLVM_CONFIG) ...) calls.
Because these variables were expanded during dependency evaluation across
every single object file compilation rule, Kbuild continuously re-executed
llvm-config forks nearly 200 times during incremental builds.

Convert llvm-config shell queries to simply expanded variables (:=) to ensure
Make evaluates LLVM compiler flags and library paths exactly once when
Makefile.config is parsed, eliminating ~185 redundant sub-processes during
build startup.
