Subject: Re: [PATCH] perf autodep: Remove strlcpy feature check, add __weak strlcpy implementation

Message-ID: <20131001152757.GB8970@gmail.com> (raw)

Ok, this should be my final perf-build speedup patch.
With this patch and all the other patches applied perf delta-builds very
fast now - an empty re-build takes just 0.2 seconds:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make
real 0m0.207s
user 0m0.130s
sys 0m0.034s
and the rebuild after a single .c file was changed is just 1.8 seconds:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> touch perf.c; time make
real 0m1.892s
user 0m1.495s
sys 0m0.337s
Without the changes this used to be 9.4 seconds:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> touch perf.c; time make
real 0m9.418s
user 0m8.251s
sys 0m0.996s
which was an eternity! :-)
Thanks,
Ingo

Subject: perf tools: Speed up the final link
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

libtraceevent.a and liblk.a rules have always-missed dependencies,
which causes python.so to be relinked at every build attempt - even
if none of the affected code changes.
This slows down re-builds unnecessarily, by adding more than a second
to the build time:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make
...
SUBDIR /fast/mingo/tip/tools/lib/lk/
make[1]: `liblk.a' is up to date.
SUBDIR /fast/mingo/tip/tools/lib/traceevent/
LINK perf
GEN python/perf.so
real 0m1.701s
user 0m1.338s
sys 0m0.301s
Add the (trivial) dependencies to not force a re-link.
This speeds up an empty re-build enormously:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make
...
real 0m0.207s
user 0m0.134s
sys 0m0.028s
[ This adds some coupling between the build dependencies of
libtraceevent and liblk - but until those stay relatively
simple this should not be an issue. ]
