Whenever perf got rebuilt, I was consistently getting errors such as
| find: '[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/plugin_mac80211.so': No such file or
directory
| find: '[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/plugin_mac80211.so': No such file or
directory
| find: find:
'[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/libtraceevent.a''[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/libtraceevent.a':
No such file or directory: No such file or directory
|
[...]
| find: cannot delete
'/mnt/xfs/devel/pil/yocto/tmp-glibc/work/wandboard-oe-linux-gnueabi/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/util/.pstack.o.cmd':
No such file or directory
breaking the whole build. The root cause seems to be that the implicit
'make clean' done during do_configure ends up running in parallel, and
thus multiple find commands attempt to stat and/or delete the same
file.
This patch of tools/perf/Makefile has been ack'ed
upstream (lkml.kernel.org/r/20180705134955.GB3686@krava). Since the sed
script matches exactly the lines
clean:
$(make)
it should be harmless to have this even with a fixed kernel, and it can
be removed if and when all relevant -stable kernels have it.
