tools build: Add new build supportAdding new build framework into 'tools/build' to be used by tools.There's no change for actual building at this point, it comes in thenext patches.The idea and more details are explained in the'tools/build/Documentation/Build.txt' file.I adopted everything from the kernel build system, with some changes toallow for multiple binaries build definitions.While the kernel's build output is single image (forget modules) we needto be able to build several binaries/libraries.The basic idea is that sser provides 'Build' files with objectsdefinitions like: perf-y += a.o perf-y += b.o libperf-y += c.o libperf-y += d.oand the build framework outputs files: perf-in.o # a.o, b.o compiled in libperf-in.o # c.o, d.o compiled inSigned-off-by: Jiri Olsa Tested-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu Tested-by: Will Deacon Cc: Alexis Berlemont Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Corey Ashford Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-fbj22h4av0otlxupwcmrxgpa@git.kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo List of files: /linux-6.15/tools/build/tests/ex/empty/Build
