Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo a96c03e8cd tools build: Add test-reallocarray.c to test-all.c to fix the build
When a test is in the FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC list in tools/build/Makefile.feature
must be added to tools/build/feature/test-all.c, because the successfull
compilation and linking of that test-all.bin file means that all the
features listed in FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC are present in the system, so we
don't have to go on feature by feature test building them.

Since reallocarray() is expected to be present in modern systems, it has
a place in FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC, so that we speed up the build process
building just that file.

For older systems, such as ubuntu:16.04 (build failure reported by Jin
Yao) debian:8, and for the current flagship RHEL distro, RHEL7, the
build will fail as test-all.bin (without test-reallocarray.c included)
passes but reallocarray() isn't present, making the build fail with:

    CC       /tmp/build/perf/libbpf.o

  libbpf.c: In function 'bpf_object__add_program':

     new_insn = reallocarray(prog->insns, new_cnt, sizeof(*insn));
              ^
    CC       /tmp/build/perf/nlattr.o

Even with:

  $ grep reallocarray /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-reallocarray=1
  $

Which ubuntu:16.04.5 LTS doesn't have:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$ head -2 /etc/os-release
  NAME="Ubuntu"
  VERSION="16.04.5 LTS (Xenial Xerus)"
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$ find /usr/include/ -name "*.h" | xargs grep -w reallocarray
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$

Fix it by including it to test-all.c, which ends up forcing the
individual tests to be triggered and for the build process to notice
that indeed reallocarray() is not there:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  In file included from test-all.c:178:0:
  test-reallocarray.c: In function 'main_test_reallocarray':
  test-reallocarray.c:7:11: error: implicit declaration of function 'reallocarray' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    return !!reallocarray(NULL, 1, 1);
             ^
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$

That is the only test that is failing on Ubuntu 16.03.5 LTS, so all
tests are forced:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$ ls -lSr *.make.output
  <SNIP successful tests>
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 15:00 test-dwarf.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 14:16 test-cplus-demangle.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 15:00 test-bpf.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 15:00 test-backtrace.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 104 Feb 14 15:00 test-bionic.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 107 Feb 14 15:00 test-libunwind-x86.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 115 Feb 14 15:00 test-libunwind-aarch64.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 122 Feb 14 15:00 test-libbabeltrace.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 254 Feb 14 15:00 test-reallocarray.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 312 Feb 14 15:00 test-all.make.output
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$

And that reallocarray() one shows:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$ cat test-reallocarray.make.output
  test-reallocarray.c: In function 'main':
  test-reallocarray.c:7:11: error: implicit declaration of function 'reallocarray' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    return !!reallocarray(NULL, 1, 1);
             ^
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$

Which now generates the expected result:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:~$ grep reallocarray /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-reallocarray=0
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:~$

The fallback mechanism kicks in and libbpf and perf are again buildable
in systems without reallocarray():

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
