#1212429 — Build failure due to Intel PT

I am trying to build perf tool on Powerpc and get this:

util/intel-pt-decoder/intel-pt-insn-decoder.c: In function ‘intel_pt_insn_decoder’:
util/intel-pt-decoder/intel-pt-insn-decoder.c:138:3: error: switch missing default case [-Werror=switch-default]
   switch (insn->immediate.nbytes) {
   ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Besides adding a 'default' case, can this file be skipped when building on
non-x86 architectures?

I am on the perf/core branch, with HEAD pointing to:

	commit c0b4dffbc529244d3e4e3bd392f2bffa2d8531a7
	Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
	Date:   Mon Aug 24 13:33:14 2015 -0300

	perf annotate: Reset the dso find_symbol cache when removing symbols

Not sure, what about processing a perf.data file generated on a x86
system using a PowerPC workstation?

Adrian, I am assuming this is only used when postprocessing, is that
right?

I am not sure either. Is that well supported?

Anyway, I tried to build with WERROR=0 and get link errors like:

linux-acme.git/tools/perf/perf-obj/libperf.a(libperf-in.o): In function `intel_pt_synth_branch_sample':
sources/linux-acme.git/tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c:871: undefined reference to `tsc_to_perf_time'

Yes.  I think it is good design to allow perf.data files from any
architecture to be processed on any other architecture.  Nevertheless,
specific features can be configured out as desired.  For example,
in this case, the option NO_AUXTRACE would work e.g.

	make NO_AUXTRACE=1 CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- ARCH=powerpc -C tools/perf

works for me.

So I will make a fix for the problems and send it in a moment.

Also, I must point point out that while I missed the 'default case' error,
the link errors are not entirely my fault, but were also a result of:

	commit ecefde629fadd3fcca2ea4c6a799d6e6aab8781f
	Date:   Thu Feb 19 13:22:33 2015 -0500

	    perf tools: Only include tsc file for x86
    
	    The perf_time_to_tsc and tsc_to_perf_time functions are only used for x86.
    
	    Make inclusion of tsc.c dependent on x86 as well.

So it seems that people really don't want to support other architectures
by default.  That would mean, for example, defaulting to NO_AUXTRACE=1
for non-x86.  I will make a patch for that, and Arnaldo can decide.

Humm, misunderstandings happen, so if that thing needs to be reverted,
we should do it, and fix the problem to keep the property of being able
to 'perf report' any perf.data file, even the ones that were generated
on another arch.

And detect if there are cross compilers installed and add those to the
'make -C tools/perf build-perf'.

I just installed gcc-powerpc64-linux-gnu, will try to use that with
build-perf.

Just in case you didn't see them, note that I sent fixes:

[PATCH 1/2] perf tools: Fix build on powerpc broken by pt/bts
[PATCH 2/2] perf tools: Make NO_AUXTRACE default for non-x86 architectures

I saw both, I think 1/2 should be applied, but not the other one, i.e.
we should default to building a binary that is capable of processing any
perf.data file.
