Current libperf man pages mention file counting.c "coming with libperf package", however, the file is missing. Add the file then.

2020-01-06libperf: Add man pagesJiri Olsa13-228/+1193
Change the man page generation to asciidoc, because it's easier to use and has been more commonly used in related projects. Remove the current rst pages. Add 3 man pages to have a base for more additions: libperf.3 - overall description libperf-counting.7 - counting basics explained on simple example libperf-sampling.7 - sampling basics explained on simple example The plan is to add more man pages to cover the basic API. The build generates html and man pages: $ cd tools/lib/perf/Documentation $ make ASCIIDOC libperf.xml XMLTO libperf.3 ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.xml XMLTO libperf-counting.7 ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.xml XMLTO libperf-sampling.7 ASCIIDOC libperf.html ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.html ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.html Add the following install targets: install-man - man pages install-html - html version of man pages install-examples - examples mentioned in the man pages Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <[email protected]> Cc: Michael Petlan <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>

Move libperf from its current location under tools/perf to a separate directory under tools/lib/.
