commit 83aa0120487e8bc3f231e72c460add783f71f17c upstream. binutils changed the signature of init_disassemble_info(), which now causes compilation failures for tools/perf/util/annotate.c, e.g. on debian unstable. Relevant binutils commit: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=60a3da00bd5407f07 Wire up the feature test and switch to init_disassemble_info_compat(), which were introduced in prior commits, fixing the compilation failure. I verified that perf can still disassemble bpf programs by using bpftrace under load, recording a perf trace, and then annotating the bpf "function" with and without the changes. With old binutils there's no change in output before/after this patch. When comparing the output from old binutils (2.35) to new bintuils with the patch (upstream snapshot) there are a few output differences, but they are unrelated to this patch. An example hunk is: 1.15 : 55:mov %rbp,%rdx 0.00 : 58:add $0xfffffffffffffff8,%rdx 0.00 : 5c:xor %ecx,%ecx - 1.03 : 5e:callq 0xffffffffe12aca3c + 1.03 : 5e:call 0xffffffffe12aca3c 0.00 : 63:xor %eax,%eax - 2.18 : 65:leaveq - 2.82 : 66:retq + 2.18 : 65:leave + 2.82 : 66:ret Signed-off-by: Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de> Acked-by: Quentin Monnet <quentin@isovalent.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Cc: Ben Hutchings <benh@debian.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Cc: bpf@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220622181918.ykrs5rsnmx3og4sv@alap3.anarazel.de Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220801013834.156015-5-andres@anarazel.de Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
