Subject: [PATCH v4 0/6] Support perf -vv
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2018 17:27:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1522402036-22915-1-git-send-email-yao.jin@linux.intel.com> (raw)

We keep having bug reports that when users build perf on their own,
but they don't install some needed libraries such as libelf,
libbfd/libibery.

The perf can build, but it is missing important functionality. And
users may complain that perf has issue or bug.

This patch-set support to print the status of compiled-in libraries.

Once users think perf missing some functionality, it should be very
easy for them to check the libraries status.

For example:

$ ./perf version --build-options
    or
  ./perf --version --build-options
    or
  ./perf -v --build-options
    or
  ./perf -vv

perf version 4.13.rc5.g6727c5
                 dwarf: [ on  ]  # HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT
    dwarf_getlocations: [ on  ]  # HAVE_DWARF_GETLOCATIONS_SUPPORT

                  lzma: [ on  ]  # HAVE_LZMA_SUPPORT
             get_cpuid: [ on  ]  # HAVE_AUXTRACE_SUPPORT
                   bpf: [ on  ]  # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT

1. Also print the macro name. That would make it easier
   to grep around in the source looking for where code
   related a particular features is located.
