| 2026-02-06 | perf regs: Remove __weak attributive arch__xxx_reg_mask() functions | Dapeng Mi | |
| Currently, some architecture-specific perf-regs functions, such as arch__intr_reg_mask() and arch__user_reg_mask(), are defined with the __weak attribute. This approach ensures that only functions matching the architecture of the build/run host are compiled and executed, reducing build time and binary size. However, this __weak attribute restricts these functions to be called only on the same architecture, preventing cross-architecture functionality. For example, a perf.data file captured on x86 cannot be parsed on an ARM platform. To address this limitation, this patch removes the __weak attribute from these perf-regs functions. The architecture-specific code is moved from the arch/ directory to the util/perf-regs-arch/ directory. The appropriate architectural functions are then called based on the EM_HOST. No functional changes are intended.

| 2024-06-26 | perf util: Make util its own library | Ian Rogers | |
| Make the util directory into its own library. This is done to avoid compiling code twice, once for the perf tool and once for the perf python module. For convenience: arch/common.c scripts/perl/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.c scripts/python/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.c are made part of this library.
