If someone specifies a single target, mixed with O=, the following way:
hubble:~/tip/tools/perf> make O=/tmp/perf util/stat.o
BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
gcc -Wbad-function-cast -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k [...]
The build might even fail, if a target depends on other targets:
hubble:~/tip/tools/perf> make O=/tmp/perf perf.o
...
perf.c: In function ‘handle_options’:
perf.c:155:21: error: ‘PERF_HTML_PATH’ undeclared (first use in this function)
The correct way to invoke such targets is:
hubble:~/tip/tools/perf> make O=/tmp/perf /tmp/perf/perf.o
BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
GEN /tmp/perf/common-cmds.h
CC /tmp/perf/perf.o
But that's unnecessary typing and it's also easy to mistakenly build into the
source directory.
To fix this remove the generic suffix rules and add redirection to $(OUTPUT)
for the most popular .o targets.

The detection of certain rarely detected features can be delayed
to when they are actually needed.
So speed up the common case of auto-detection by pre-building only
a core set of features and populating only their feature-flags.

via the feature_check() function. ]

Linus reported the following perf build system bug:
'Another annoyance during that make was that "make install" seems to
want to re-make the thing I just built. That's absolutely horrible, [...]'
The thing that got re-built were 'only' the (numerous) feature checks,
not the whole project - but still it was mighty annoying as the feature
checks took 9+ seconds even on reasonably fast boxes.
Even with the autodep patches where feature detection is much faster
it wastes resources, wastes screen real estate and confuses users if
we execute feature detection twice.
There were two sources for these unnecessary re-builds of the feature
checks:
- Unnecessary nested invocations of $(MAKE), apparently to be able
to do conditional compilation dependent on documentation tools
presence. Use straight dependencies instead, with no nesting.
- A direct invocation of $(MAKE) to rebuild the PERF-VERSION-FILE.
This is apparently done to be able to include it into the
Makefile:
-include $(OUTPUT)PERF-VERSION-FILE
but that's entirely pointless for two reasons: 1) the version file
gets regenerated by the initial build pass anyway, 2) including it
is futile, given its contents:
#define PERF_VERSION "3.12.rc3.g8510c7"
'make' will interpret that as a comment line...
So just remove this part of the doc-generation logic.
With these things fixed a 'make install' now rebuilds only what is needed.
A repeated 'make install' on an already built tree is super fast now,
it finishes in under 0.3 seconds:
#
# After the patch:
#
$ time make install
...
real 0m0.280s
user 0m0.162s
sys 0m0.054s
Prior all the autodep changes and prior this fix, a repeat 'make install'
took 24.1 seconds (!) on the same system:
#
# Before the patches:
#
$ time make install
...
real 0m24.109s
user 0m21.171s
sys 0m2.449s
Which almost entirely was caused by fixable build system fat.
We are now literally ~86 times faster.
A fresh rebuild and install now takes just 11.4 seconds:
#
# After the patch:
#
$ make clean
$ time make -j16 install
...
real 0m11.457s
user 1m43.411s
sys 0m7.610s
Without the patches it took 27.8 seconds:
#
# Before the patches:
#
$ make clean
$ time make -j16 install
...
real 0m27.801s
user 1m59.242s
sys 0m9.749s
So even in the complete rebuild case we are now ~2.5 times faster.

which causes python.so to be relinked at every build attempt - even
if none of the affected code changes.
This slows down re-builds unnecessarily, by adding more than a second
to the build time:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make
...
SUBDIR /fast/mingo/tip/tools/lib/lk/
make[1]: `liblk.a' is up to date.
SUBDIR /fast/mingo/tip/tools/lib/traceevent/
LINK perf
GEN python/perf.so
real 0m1.701s
user 0m1.338s
sys 0m0.301s
Add the (trivial) dependencies to not force a re-link.
This speeds up an empty re-build enormously:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> time make
...
real 0m0.207s
user 0m0.134s
sys 0m0.028s
[ This adds some coupling between the build dependencies of
libtraceevent and liblk - but until those stay relatively
simple this should not be an issue. ]

util/PERF-VERSION-GEN is currently executed on every build attempt,
and this script can take a lot of time on trees that are at a
significant git-distance from Linus's tree:
$ time util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
real 0m4.343s
user 0m4.176s
sys 0m0.140s
It also takes a lot of time if the Git repository is network attached, etc.,
because the commands it uses:
TAG=$(git describe --abbrev=0 --match "v[0-9].[0-9]*" 2>/dev/null )
has to count commits from the nearest tag and thus has to access (and
decompress) every git commit blob on the relevant version path.
Even on Linus's tree it takes 0.28 seconds on a fast box to count all the
commits and get the git version string:
$ time util/PERF-VERSION-GEN
real 0m0.279s
user 0m0.247s
sys 0m0.025s
But the version string only has to be regenerated if the git repository's
head commit changes. So add a dependency of ../../.git/HEAD and touch
the file every time it's regenerated, so that Make's build rules can
pick it up and cache the result:
make: `PERF-VERSION-FILE' is up to date.

Concatenate all feature checks into test-all.c.
This can be built and checked faster than all the individual tests.
If test-all fails then we still check all the individual features, so
this is a pure speedup, it should have no effects on functionality.

The strlcpy() feature check slows every build unnecessarily - so make it
a __weak function so it does not have to be auto-detected.
If the libc (or any other library) has an strlcpy() implementation it will
be used - otherwise our fallback is active.
