[PATCH 63/64] perf tools: Use getconf to determine number of online CPUs

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Tue Apr 28 2015 - 09:36:28 EST


From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>

Parsing /proc/cpuinfo is a fiddly, arch-dependent business and a recent
change to get it working for Sparc broke arm and arm64 platforms.

Use sysconf to determine the number of online CPUs only parsing
/proc/cpuinfo when sysconf is not available.
