So, when such build tests fail, we can see why by looking for a file with a special name in the O= output dir: [acme@felicio linux]$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-bpf.make.output test-bpf.c:1:23: fatal error: linux/bpf.h: No such file or directory #include <linux/bpf.h> ^ compilation terminated. [acme@felicio linux]$ Right, one of the few things that could explain the failure, but: [acme@felicio linux]$ find . -name bpf.h ./include/linux/bpf.h ./include/uapi/linux/bpf.h [acme@felicio linux]$ So lemme try doing it in place: [acme@felicio linux]$ make -C tools/perf/ make: Entering directory `/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf' BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build Auto-detecting system features: ... dwarf: [ on ] ... glibc: [ on ] ... gtk2: [ on ] ... libaudit: [ on ] ... libbfd: [ on ] ... libelf: [ on ] ... libnuma: [ on ] ... libperl: [ on ] ... libpython: [ on ] ... libslang: [ on ] ... libunwind: [ on ] ... libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on ] ... zlib: [ on ] ... lzma: [ on ] ... bpf: [ OFF ] Doesn't work as well :-\ Looking at the following patches... - Arnaldo -- 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/
