Subject: [PATCH] perf: enable libtraceevent dynamic linking
Date: Wed, 28 Apr 2021 11:20:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210428092023.4009-1-mpetlan@redhat.com> (raw)
Currently we support only static linking with kernel's libtraceevent
(tools/lib/traceevent). This patch adds libtraceevent package detection
and support to link perf with it dynamically.
The libtraceevent package status is displayed with:
$ make VF=1 LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC=1
...
... libtraceevent: [ on ]
Default behavior remains the same (static linking).
