-Subject: [PATCH] Change configure to look for libpfm4 function first; then
- fallback to libpfm3
-
-This change only affects ppc64 architecture, since it's the only
-architecture that uses libpfm to obtain the event hex code to pass
-to perf_event_open.
-
-There were bugs in libpfm3 pertaining to POWER7 event definitions that
-have been fixed in libpfm4. So it's likely that some IBM POWER7 users
-may want to install libpfm4 and build oprofile to link with it. For
-example, if libpfm4 were installed in /usr/local, the user would invoke
-oprofile's configure thusly:
-
-LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib64" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" ./configure
-
-But if the user happens to also have libpfm3 already installed in /usr,
-then the current order of config tests would result in choosing the libpfm3
-library. This logic seems wrong. The configure checking should go from most
-recent to older library versions. This patch changes the order of checking
-so the libpfm4 library would be found first.
