tools build: Add capability-related feature detection
Add utilities to help checking capabilities of the running procss. Make
perf link with libcap, if it is available. If no libcap-dev[el], assume
no capabilities.
Committer testing:
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
Auto-detecting system features:
<SNIP>
... libbfd: [ on ]
... libcap: [ OFF ]
... libelf: [ on ]
<SNIP>
Makefile.config:833: No libcap found, disables capability support, please install libcap-devel/libcap-dev
<SNIP>
$ grep libcap /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
feature-libcap=0
$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libcap.make.output
test-libcap.c:2:10: fatal error: sys/capability.h: No such file or directory
2 | #include <sys/capability.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
$
Now install libcap-devel and try again:
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
