This one causes a build failure when building perf:
builtin-record.c: In function ârecord__process_auxtraceâ:
builtin-record.c:181:36: error: implicit declaration of function âperf_data__is_dirâ; did you mean âperf_data__is_pipeâ? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
if (!perf_data__is_pipe(data) && !perf_data__is_dir(data)) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
perf_data__is_pipe
builtin-record.c:181:36: error: nested extern declaration of âperf_data__is_dirâ [-Werror=nested-externs]
It seems to require 258031c017c3 ("perf header: Add DIR_FORMAT feature
to describe directory data"), which doesn't backport cleanly. Dropping
f54f24d0f19a ("perf data: Don't store auxtrace index for directory data
file") does seem to fix the issue.
