2025-03-20	perf build: Remove Makefile.syscalls	Ian Rogers
	Now a single beauty file is generated and used by all architectures, remove the per-architecture Makefiles, Kbuild files and previous generator script. Note: there was conversation with Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> and they'd written an alternate approach to support multiple architectures: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250114-perf_syscall_arch_runtime-v1-1-5b304e408e11@rivosinc.com/ It would have been better to have helped Charlie fix their series (my apologies) but they agreed that the approach taken here was likely best for longer term maintainability: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Z6Jk_UN9i69QGqUj@ghost/ Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Reviewed-by: Howard Chu <howardchu95@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> Reviewed-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250319050741.269828-11-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>
2025-01-09	perf tools: Create generic syscall table support	Charlie Jenkins
	Currently each architecture in perf independently generates syscall headers. Adapt the work that has gone into unifying syscall header implementations in the kernel to work with perf tools. Introduce this framework with riscv at first. riscv previously relied on libaudit, but with this change, perf tools for riscv no longer needs this external dependency.
