tools lib traceevent: Export dynamic symbols used by traceevent plugins
Traceevent plugins need dynamic symbols exported from libtraceevent.a, otherwise a dlopen error will occur during plugins loading. This patch uses dynamic-list-file to export dynamic symbols which will be used in plugins to perf executable. The problem is covered up if feature-libpython is enabled, because PYTHON_EMBED_LDOPTS contains '-Xlinker --export-dynamic' which adds all symbols to the dynamic symbol table. So we should reproduce the problem by setting NO_LIBPYTHON=1. Before this patch: (Prepare plugins) $ ls /root/.traceevent/plugins/ plugin_sched_switch.so plugin_function.so ... $ perf record -e 'ftrace:function' ls $ perf script Warning: could not load plugin '/mnt/data/root/.traceevent/plugins/plugin_sched_switch.so' /root/.traceevent/plugins/plugin_sched_switch.so: undefined symbol: pevent_unregister_event_handler Warning: could not load plugin '/root/.traceevent/plugins/plugin_function.so' /root/.traceevent/plugins/plugin_function.so: undefined symbol: warning ... :1049 1049 [000] 9666.754487: ftrace:function: ffffffff8118bc50 <-- ffffffff8118c5b3 :1049 1049 [000] 9666.754487: ftrace:function: ffffffff818e2440 <-- ffffffff8118bc75 :1049 1049 [000] 9666.754487: ftrace:function: ffffffff8106eee0 <-- ffffffff811212e2 After this patch: $ perf record -e 'ftrace:function' ls $ perf script :1049 1049 [000] 9666.754487: ftrace:function: __set_task_comm :1049 1049 [000] 9666.754487: ftrace:function: _raw_spin_lock :1049 1049 [000] 9666.754487: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ...
