linux-tools perf for ARM boards.

Jan. 25, 2015

      hi All,

Could some body point me method to install linux/tools/perf on ARM boards.

I have enabled the support for perf in .config 

CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS=y

root@odroid-xu3:/usr/src/odroidxu3-3.18.y/tools# make perf
DESCEND  lib/api
MKDIR    libapi_dirs
CC       fs/debugfs.o
CC       fs/fs.o
CC       fd/array.o
AR       libapikfs.a
DESCEND  perf
BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
config/Makefile:613: No numa.h found, disables 'perf bench numa mem' benchmark, please install numactl-devel/libnuma-devel/libnuma-dev

Auto-detecting system features:

...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on  ]
...     DWARF post unwind library: libunwind

SUBDIR   /usr/src/odroidxu3-3.18.y/tools/lib/traceevent/
LINK     perf
LINK     libperf-gtk.so
GEN      python/perf.so

build is successful but how to install and where to install.
