Features in FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC will be set as being available if
test-all.c builds, so since the rust test isn't included in test-all.c,
we can't have 'rust' in there, remove it from FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC and
use feature-check so that it tries to build test-rust.bin, doing the
actual feature detection.

"Perf event/metric description:
Unify all event and metric descriptions in JSON format. Now event
parsing and handling is greatly simplified by that.
From users point of view, perf list will provide richer information
about hardware events like the following.
$ perf list hw
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):
legacy hardware:
branch-instructions
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branches]. Unit: cpu]
branch-misses
[Mispredicted branch instructions. Unit: cpu]
branches
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branch-instructions]. Unit: cpu]
bus-cycles
[Bus cycles,which can be different from total cycles. Unit: cpu]
cache-misses
[Cache misses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache misses; this is intended to be used in conjunction with the
PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES event to calculate cache miss rates. Unit: cpu]
cache-references
[Cache accesses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache accesses but this may vary depending on your CPU. This may include
prefetches and coherency messages; again this depends on the design of your CPU. Unit: cpu]
cpu-cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cycles]. Unit: cpu]
cycles
[Total cycles. Be wary of what happens during CPU frequency scaling [This event is an alias of cpu-cycles]. Unit: cpu]
instructions
[Retired instructions. Be careful,these can be affected by various issues,most notably hardware interrupt counts. Unit: cpu]
ref-cycles
[Total cycles; not affected by CPU frequency scaling. Unit: cpu]
But most notable changes would be in the perf stat. On the right side,
the default metrics are better named and aligned. :)

Deferred unwinding support:
With the kernel support (commit c69993ecdd: "perf: Support deferred
user unwind"), perf can use deferred callchains for userspace stack
trace with frame pointers like below:
$ perf record --call-graph fp,defer ...
This will be transparent to users when it comes to other commands like
perf report and perf script. They will merge the deferred callchains
to the previous samples as if they were collected together.
ARM SPE updates
- Extensive enhancements to support various kinds of memory
operations including GCS, MTE allocation tags, memcpy/memset,
register access, and SIMD operations.
- Add inverted data source filter (inv_data_src_filter) support to
exclude certain data sources.
- Improve documentation.
Vendor event updates:
- Intel: Updated event files for Sierra Forest, Panther Lake, Meteor
Lake, Lunar Lake, Granite Rapids, and others.
- Arm64: Added metrics for i.MX94 DDR PMU and Cortex-A720AE
definitions.
- RISC-V: Added JSON support for T-HEAD C920V2.
Misc:
- Improve pointer tracking in data type profiling. It'd give better
output when the variable is using container_of() to convert type.
- Annotation support for perf c2c report in TUI. Press 'a' key to
enter annotation view from cacheline browser window. This will show
which instruction is causing the cacheline contention.
- Lots of fixes and test coverage improvements!"

perf doesn't use libtracefs and so it doesn't make sense to assume it is
always available when building test-all.bin, defeating the feature check
speedup it provides.
The other tools/build/ users such as rtla, rv, etc call $(feature_check
libtracefs) to check its availability instead of using the test-all.bin
mechanism, stopping the build and asking for libtracefs-devel to be
installed.
Remove it from FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC to not have it as available, as noted
by Ian Rogers during review.

If libperl is installed then the perf tool build will build against
it. There appears to be limited interest in the scripting support for
perl so let's make it opt-in and deprecate it.
With this patch applied you need to add LIBPERL=1 to get libperl
support in perf - there is no warning if libperl is missing, but
building will fail if libperl is missing and the build has LIBPERL=1.
The perf version output is changed to:

This creates a config option that detects libbpf's ability to display
character arrays as strings, which was just added to the BPF tree
(https://git.kernel.org/bpf/bpf-next/c/87c9c79a02b4).
To test this change, I built perf (from later in this patch set) with:
- static libbpf (default, using source from kernel tree)
- dynamic libbpf (LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 LIBBPF_INCLUDE=/usr/local/include)
For both the static and dynamic versions, I used headers with and without
the ".emit_strings" option.
I verified that of the four resulting binaries, the two with
".emit_strings" would successfully record BPF_METADATA events, and the two
without wouldn't. All four binaries would successfully display
BPF_METADATA events, because the relevant bit of libbpf code is only used
during "perf record".

so done here as well.
So, now when the devel files are not available we get:

Makefile.config:653: No libunwind found. Please install libunwind-dev[el] >= 1.1 and/or set LIBUNWIND_DIR and set LIBUNWIND=1 in the make command line as it is opt-in now

There are inconsistencies that are being audited, as can be seen above
with the libcap case, that is not linked with test-all.bin nor is
present in test-all.c, so shouldn't be set as present. Further patches
are going to address those inconsistencies, but lets document this a bit
more to reduce the chances of this happening again.

We have a tools/build/feature/test-all.c that has the most common set of
features that perf uses and are expected to have its development files
available when building perf.
When we made libwunwind opt-in we forgot to remove them from the list of
features that are assumed to be available when test-all.c builds, remove
them.
Before this patch:
$ rm -rf /tmp/b ; mkdir /tmp/b ; make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/b feature-dump ; grep feature-libunwind-aarch64= /tmp/b/FEATURE-DUMP
feature-libunwind-aarch64=1
$
Even tho this not being test built and those header files being
available:
$ head -5 tools/build/feature/test-libunwind-aarch64.c
// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
#include <libunwind-aarch64.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
extern int UNW_OBJ(dwarf_search_unwind_table) (unw_addr_space_t as,
$
After this patch:
$ grep feature-libunwind- /tmp/b/FEATURE-DUMP
$
Now an audit on what is being enabled when test-all.c builds will be
performed.
Fixes: 176c9d1e6a ("tools features: Don't check for libunwind devel files by default")
