Implement automatic parallel builds when building in tools/perf: $ time make
# [ perf build: Doing 'make -j12' parallel build. ] Auto-detecting system features: ... real 0m9.265s user 0m59.888s sys 0m6.082s On GNU make achieving this is not particularly easy, it requires a separate makefile, which then invokes the main Makefile. ( Note: this patch adds Makefile.parallel to show the concept - the two makefiles will be flipped in the next patch to avoid having to specify -f to get parallelism in the default build. ) Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <a...@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijls...@chello.nl> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhy...@kernel.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsah...@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jo...@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-dvbjwqityzrufzkz8oanh...@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mi...@kernel.org> --- tools/perf/Makefile.parallel | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 26 insertions(+) diff --git a/tools/perf/Makefile.parallel b/tools/perf/Makefile.parallel new file mode 100644 index 0000000..ec5e08b --- /dev/null +++ b/tools/perf/Makefile.parallel @@ -0,0 +1,26 @@ +# +# Do a parallel build with multiple jobs, based on the number of CPUs online +# in this system: 'make -j8' on a 8-CPU system, etc. +# +# (To override it, run 'make JOBS=1' and similar.) +# +ifeq ($(JOBS),) + JOBS := $(shell grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo 2>/dev/null) + ifeq ($(JOBS),) + JOBS := 1 + endif +endif + +export JOBS + +$(info $(shell printf '# [ perf build: Doing '\''make \033[33m-j'$(JOBS)'\033[m'\'' parallel build. ]\n')) + +# +# Needed if no target specified: +# +all: + @$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -j$(JOBS) $@ + +%: + @$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -j$(JOBS) $@ + -- 1.8.3.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
