[PATCH v2 00/18] clang-tools support in tools

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Thu Oct 05 2023 - 19:11:57 EST


Allow the clang-tools scripts to work with builds in tools such as
tools/perf and tools/lib/perf. An example use looks like:

```
$ cd tools/perf
$ make CC=clang CXX=clang++
$ ../../scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py
$ ../../scripts/clang-tools/run-clang-tools.py clang-tidy compile_commands.json -checks=-*,readability-named-parameter

```

Fix a number of the more serious low-hanging issues in perf found by
clang-tidy.

This support isn't complete, in particular it doesn't support output
directories properly and so fails for tools/lib/bpf, tools/bpf/bpftool
and if an output directory is used.

v2: Address comments by Nick Desaulniers in patch 3, and add their
Reviewed-by to patches 1 and 2.

Ian Rogers (18):
gen_compile_commands: Allow the line prefix to still be cmd_
gen_compile_commands: Sort output compile commands by file name
run-clang-tools: Add pass through checks and and header-filter
arguments
