It looks like 4.9.208 introduces a build regression for perf:
make -f /builddir/build/BUILD/kernel-4.9.208/linux-4.9.208-1.el7.x86_64/tools/build/Makefile.build dir=. obj=perf
-c -o builtin-report.o builtin-report.c builtin-report.c: In function ‘report__setup_sample_type’: builtin-report.c:296:6: error: ‘dwarf_callchain_users’ undeclared (first use in this function) if (dwarf_callchain_users) { ^ builtin-report.c:296:6: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in mv: cannot stat ‘./.builtin-report.o.tmp’: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [builtin-report.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [perf-in.o] Error 2 make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2
4,9.207 works fine.
The regression was caused by the following patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191021133834.25998-7-acme@kernel.org/
To fix this, 'dwarf_callchain_users' needs to be declared.
hum, I see it's declared in callchain.h which is included in builtin-report.c also I can't see that same stuff like you have on line 296.. what sources are you on?
could you please check with latest Arnaldo's perf/core? git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git
thanks, jirka
This is kernel 4.4.208 that was released today. 'dwarf_callchain_users' is not declared in this kernel. I'm afraid it was missed when the aforementioned patch was backported.
