perf: clear out make flags when calling kernel make kernelver

2011-06-15T20:12:55+00:00

When generating the perf version from the kernel version using 'make kernelver' it is necessary to clear out any MAKEFLAGS otherwise they may trigger additional output which pollute the contents. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

perf tools: Version incorrect with some versions of grep

2011-03-16T11:59:50+00:00

Some versions of grep don't treat '\s' properly. When building perf on such systems and using a kernel tarball the perf version is unable to be determined from the main kernel Makefile and the user is left with a version of '..'. Replacing the use of '\s' with '[[:space:]]', which should work in all grep versions, gives a usable version number.

perf: Version String fix, for fallback if not from git

2010-07-05T08:42:58+00:00

This gets rid of the default version fallback for Perf and changes it so that it returns the version of the kernel from it's Makefile (if sources were not from git, ie. if it was downloaded from a tarball) Signed-off-by: Thavidu Ranatunga Acked-by: Ian Munsie Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo LKML-Reference: <1278316815-6099-2-git-send-email-tharan@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

perf: Version String fix, using kernel version

2010-07-05T08:42:58+00:00

Changes the Perf --version string such that it shows the kernel version as suggested by Ingo as follows: That way the perf that comes with v2.6.34 will be: perf version v2.6.34 while interim versions will have the version of the interim kernel - for example: perf version v2.6.35-rc4-70-g39ef13a This functionality was already in the perf version generator file except that it was looking for a .git in the perf directory instead of the kernel directory.

perf tools: Bump version to 0.0.2

2009-10-16T08:34:28+00:00

We released the first version of perf with 0.0.1 in v2.6.31, time to double our version number to 0.0.2 ;-) Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Frederic Weisbecker LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/

2009-06-06T18:33:43+00:00

Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the (new) tools/ directory. Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo LKML-Reference: Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar
