When we build perf we place all of the .o files from the library files
(util, arch/x/util, etc) into libperf.a which is then linked into perf.
The problem is that the linker will by default only consider .o files
within the .a archive if they are necessary to satisfy an unresolved
symbol. As weak functions are not unresolved, it will not consider a .o
file from the archive containing the strong versions of weak functions
unless it requires it for another reason.
This patch adds the --whole-archive flags to the linker when passing in
the libperf.a file to ensure that it will consider every .o file in the
archive, not just what it believes that it needs. The end result is that
weak functions can now be overridden by strong variants of them in the
libperf.a file.

I'm not seeing any of those warnings or errors on either of the systems
I have been testing on (x86_64 + PPC64), but it looks like the linker is
trying to pull in too much from the system libraries.
Can you test the below patch to see if the messages go away - it only
applies the whole-archive flag to libperf.a, whereas before I was also
applying it to pthread, libelf, etc.
Cheers,
-Ian

Yeah, fell thru the cracks, but I tested it now on several systems and
it now seems ok, applying to perf/core, thanks,

The PowerPC ABI prefixes symbol names with periods, which causes perf
test to fail when it compares the symbol from the vmlinux file with the
symbol names from kallsyms. This patch adds the infrastructure to allow
archs to override how symbol names are compared and implements the
PowerPC function to disregard any prefixed periods, allowing perf test
to pass.

Hi Paul,
Can you take a look at this patch and ACK (or NACK) it and push it to
Ingo? The two other patches in this series are already in
tip/perf/core, we're just missing this one.
Cheers,

Hi Ian,
I guess we can apply this one now? Or do you have anything
newer?
