perf: performance analysis tools for Linux
Performance counters for Linux are a new kernel-based subsystem
that provide a framework for all things performance analysis. It
covers hardware level (CPU/PMU, Performance Monitoring Unit) features
and software features (software counters, tracepoints) as well.
To enforce the coupling between userspace and kernel, this
commit introduces perf as a subpackage of the linux-wrs tree.
perf is built directly inside the kernel tree (and hence picks
up all appropriate patches), but is packaged as a separate
utility that can be added to the rootfs and used to analyze
the kernel.

kernel: add dynamic configuration and patching
This change adds the ability to dynamicaly modify a git based
linux repo during the do_patch and do_configure changes.
The bulk of the work is done by the kern_tools, and the recipe
simply needs to add createme and modifyme scripts to go along
with the existing configme.

acl: add new package

- reuse attr build system include file
- the default build will add attr's rpath into libacl.so, a

js: upgrade to version 1.8.0~rc1
from 1.5
use version string 1.7.0+1.8.0rc1
aka. spidermonkey
changes:
- rebase jsautocfg.h to add JS_HAVE_LONG_LONG, fixing the build
failure
- document the limitation of jsautocfg.h
- jskwgen is a host script, and should be built by BUILD_CC
- remove dependency of readline. readline or editline is only
used in standalone js command line, which is not shipped in
package. Removing the dependency to avoid any concern of
GPL3-ization
- set BUILD_OPT=1 for optimized build
Note on version choice:
js is known to have long rc cycles. e.g. the version 1.5:
js-1.5-b1: 12/16/1999, js-1.5-rc1: 03/17/2000,
js-1.5-rc6a: 06/16/2004, js-1.5 release: 10/22/2005
Current release version is 1.7.0: 10/19/2007, latest version
1.8.0-rc1: 03/09/2009, so 1.8.0-rc1 is used.
Note on standalone js vs. xulrunner:
xulrunner also includes a js version, that is more updated than
standalone spidermonkey. It also uses autotools so jsautocfg.h
patch may not be necessary. However the version of xulrunner is
different from js, and it's difficult to identify the mapping
between them. It needs further investigation on xulrunner's
bundled js

In the commit 90e80aafbd244b00c2ced995feb73af4a739279b, with the image built by
poky-image-sdk(MACHINE=qemux86), tcf-agent is launched automatically with
the option "-s SSL:" in script /etc/init.d/tcf-agent, which is misleading to
users. This option tells the agent to use SSL instead of TCP for communication.
Because tcf-agent is not built with the SSL option enabled (libssl is not
installed in the target), the agent will fall back to TCP.
This could be misleading to users, so we may as well remove it.
