- 1) perf build
- =============
- The perf build process consists of several separated building blocks,
- which are linked together to form the perf binary:
- - libperf library (static)
- - perf builtin commands
- - traceevent library (static)
- - GTK ui library
- Several makefiles govern the perf build:
- - Makefile
- top level Makefile working as a wrapper that calls the main
- Makefile.perf with a -j option to do parallel builds.
- - Makefile.perf
- main makefile that triggers build of all perf objects including
- installation and documentation processing.
- - tools/build/Makefile.build
- main makefile of the build framework
- - tools/build/Build.include
- build framework generic definitions
- - Build makefiles
- makefiles that defines build objects
- Please refer to tools/build/Documentation/Build.txt for more
- information about build framework.
- 2) perf build
- =============
- The Makefile.perf triggers the build framework for build objects:
- perf, libperf, gtk
- resulting in following objects:
- $ ls *-in.o
- gtk-in.o libperf-in.o perf-in.o
- Those objects are then used in final linking:
- libperf-gtk.so <- gtk-in.o libperf-in.o
- perf <- perf-in.o libperf-in.o
- NOTE this description is omitting other libraries involved, only
- focusing on build framework outcomes
