The path to elfutils was previously hardcoded as /usr/include/elfutils
which does not work with cross compilers. If CROSS_COMPILE is set, try
to set an include path from GCC's sysroot if GCC was built with sysroot
support, if sysroot support isn't enabled, don't specify a path for
elfutils allowing the user to set it with EXTRA_CFLAGS.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about cross compiling. I just thought
if there is no sysroot support, we should warn user instead of
just failing to find elfutils.

Thank you,

Is that something that you really need to warn the user about? If they have a
compiler without sysroot support they can still cross compile using
EXTRA_CFLAGS and the warning would be needless. There isn't a real requirement
for sysroot here, just a path to the elfutils headers.

It seems that $ELFUTILS_INCLUDE become "" without sysroot support.
In that case, I guess that user have to set the elfutils header
path to  EXTRA_CFLAGS and, make will just show "No libdw.h found
or old libdw.h found ..." message. (I just guess, not so familier
with cross compile...)

So, I just like to suggest adding a message like as;
"No sysroot support. Please set elfutils include path in EXTRA_CFLAGS."
Doesn't it make easier to find a problem?

Other parts are OK for me.

Thank you,

Ok, how about this revised patch?

Subject: [PATCHv2] perf tools: allow cross compiling with DWARF support

The path to elfutils was previously hardcoded as /usr/include/elfutils
which does not work with cross compilers. If CROSS_COMPILE is set, try
to set an include path from GCC's sysroot if GCC was built with sysroot
support, if sysroot support isn't enabled, don't specify a path for
elfutils allowing the user to set it with EXTRA_CFLAGS.

v2: if we can't find libdw.h and there is no sysroot support but it
would be useful, warn the user.
