[PATCH 0/7] perf: A tools library

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

Hi,

so this is a pretty old intention which I had put on the backburner due
to work-related stuff but here it is again. Basically we want to carve
out stuff in tools/ which is generic enough to be shared between the
different tools instead of replicating it among them.

And this is a first go at sharing the debugfs searching and setting code
between perf and vm/page-types.c which had an older debugfs_mount et.
al. version.

Please take a look at let me know whether the direction is ok. It builds
and works fine here but I could've missed something so consider this
RFC-ish of nature.

Thanks.

Borislav Petkov (7):
  perf, debugfs: Remove a write-only variable
  perf: Honor parallel jobs
  perf: Correct Makefile.include
  perf: Carve out debugfs
  perf: Extract perf-specific stuff from debugfs.c
  perf: Do not allow empty debugfs-dir option
  tools/vm: Switch to liblk library
