perf tests arm64: Compile tests unconditionally

2019-06-17T18:57:16Z

In order to subsequently add more tests for the arm64 architecture we compile the tests target for arm64 systematically. Further explanation provided by Mark Rutland: Given prior questions regarding this commit, it's probably worth spelling things out more explicitly, e.g. Currently we only build the arm64/tests directory if CONFIG_DWARF_UNWIND is selected, which is fine as the only test we have is arm64/tests/dwarf-unwind.o. So that we can add more tests to the test directory, let's unconditionally build the directory, but conditionally build dwarf-unwind.o depending on CONFIG_DWARF_UNWIND. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

perf tools arm64: Add libdw DWARF post unwind support for ARM64

2018-03-16T16:53:46Z

Based on prior work: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/6/395 and on how other arches add libdw unwind support. Includes support for running the unwind test, e.g., on a system with only elfutils' libdw 0.170, the test now runs, and successfully: $ ./perf test unwind 56: Test dwarf unwind : Ok Originally-by: Jean Pihet Reported-by: Christian Hansen Signed-off-by: Kim Phillips Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180308211030.4ee4a0d6ff6dc5cda1b567d4@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Add ARM64 perf_regs_load to support libunwind and enable testing

2015-05-29T15:43:40Z

Newest libunwind does support ARM64, and perf is able to utilize it also. This patch enables the perf test dwarf unwind for arm64.
