2025-02-12	tools build: Fix a number of Wconversion warnings	Ian Rogers
	There's some expressed interest in having the compiler flag -Wconversion detect at build time certain kinds of potential problems: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250103182532.GB781381@e132581.arm.com/ As feature detection passes -Wconversion from CFLAGS when set, the feature detection compile tests need to not fail because of -Wconversion as the failure will be interpretted as a missing feature. Switch various types to avoid the -Wconversion issue, the exact meaning of the code is unimportant as it is typically looking for header file definitions.

2020-08-14	perf build-ids: Fall back to debuginfod query if debuginfo not found	Frank Ch. Eigler
	During a perf-record, use the -ldebuginfod API to query a debuginfod server, should the debug data not be found in the usual system locations. If successful, the usual $HOME/.debug dir is populated. Tested with: $ find . . ./ctags-debuginfo-5.8-26.fc31.x86_64.rpm ./usr ./usr/lib ./usr/lib/debug ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id/ca ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id/ca/46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id/ca/46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d.debug ./usr/lib/debug/usr ./usr/lib/debug/usr/bin ./usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ctags-5.8-26.fc31.x86_64.debug $ debuginfod -F . ... $ rm -rf ~/.debug/ ; mkdir ~/.debug $ perf record make tags BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build GEN tags [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.107 MB perf.data (1483 samples) ] $ find ~/.debug \| grep ctags /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d/elf /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d/probes $ rm -rf ~/.debug/ ; mkdir ~/.debug $ DEBUGINFOD_URLS=http://localhost:8002 perf record make tags BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build GEN tags [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.108 MB perf.data (1531 samples) ] $ find ~/.debug \| grep ctag /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d/debug /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d/elf /home/jolsa/.debug/usr/bin/ctags/ca46f6ae6a0cee57d85abc1d461c49074248908d/probes Note the 'debug' file is created in the last run. Note that currently the debuginfo data are downloaded only on record path, we still need add this support to perf build-id/report.. and test ;-) Tested-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Frank Ch.
