[PATCH 3/4] perf tool: Fix build when sysconf doesn't support cache line size

From: Chris Phlipot
Date: Fri Jul 01 2016 - 01:15:45 EST


Enable perf to build on libc implementations where sysconf() doesn't
support _SC_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE as a parameter.

For example, the Bionic implementation does not support this as a
paremter. Older versions of Bionic will throw an error when this is passed
in as a parameter, and more recent versions will just return 0 as the
cache line size.
