perf: mkdir ${B} -> mkdir -p ${B}

${B} is the default cwd of tasks, so there might be race issues such as:

perf: fix build breakage on kernels after 4.1

2015-08-12T18:31:12+00:00

A recent commit fixed perf build failures with a change that duplicates
a fix that can be found in kernels after 4.1. Unfortunately there is a
conflict between these two fixes and we see perf build failures when
building perf in kernels that contain the fix already. The problem is
that the fix from the recipe modifies the location of .config-detected
to $(OUTPUT).config-detected. In a 4.2 kernel the location will be
changed to $(OUTPUT)$(OUTPUT).config-detected.

We change the recipe to require a space in the pattern to only change
kernel sources that do not already place file in $(OUTPUT).

The recent commit that introduced the build failure is:

        perf: Fix config file conflict with 4.1 kernels

        If you setup mutlitlibs and then:

        bitbake perf libb32-perf
        bitbake perf libb32-perf -c cleansstate
        bitbake perf libb32-perf

        you will see races where the two builds get confused about which directory
        they should be using and they corrupt each other.

        The issue is that .config-detected is created in ${S}, not $(OUTPUT).
        We can fix this by moving the file to $(OUTPUT).

        perf tools: Create config.detected into OUTPUT directory

        Create config.detected into OUTPUT directory instead of source
        directory.

        This fixes parallel builds that share the same source directory.

perf: fix build (and feature tests) for 4.1-rcX

2015-08-09T23:36:54+00:00

The way that perf detects features has changed/moved via commit e6c76d620
[perf build: Move feature checks code under tools/build].

This code movement resulted in the definition of CC being dropped, and
in turn the passing of --sysroot not part of the build.

This results in feature tests failing with errors such as:

  In file included from test-pthread-attr-setaffinity-np.c:1:0:
  sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/lib/x86_64-poky-linux/gcc/x86_64-poky-linux/4.9.2/include/stdint.h:9:26:
  fatal error: stdint.h: No such file or directory
  # include_next 
                          ^
  compilation terminated.

While the fix is going upstream, we can modify the perf recipe to add
the definition of CC into the Makefile, and we'll continue to work on
patched and unpatched kernels.

perf: add bash to RDEPENDS

2015-03-20T11:03:17+00:00

perf has a dependency on bash in its utilities, which generate the
following warning:

  WARNING: QA Issue: perf requires /bin/bash, but no providers in its RDEPENDS [file-rdeps]

Since perf is not installed on extremely small systems, we just add
bash to the RDEPENDS, rather than modifying scripts or removing content.

It hasn't actually been being enabled anyway: 'Disabling post unwind,

perf: Add libdw unwind support to perf-libunwind feature

2015-01-16T09:13:02+00:00

perf can use either libdw or libunwind dwarf unwinders, or neither.
The perf-libunwind feature implies that if disabled, neither should be
used, so have it disable both libdw and libunwind DWARF unwinders if
disabled.

This fixes [YOCTO #7129].
