It works OK with linux-yocto 4.1 (the default). It worked OK on yocto-2.0. 62055 1 tom.zanussi 2016-05-09 21:57:37 +0000 The reason this is failing is because the perf build is seeing ARCH=i386 and doesn't know what to do with that (it should be ARCH=x86). The reason it's seeing ARCH=i386 is because of commit a6f52930a68d8462e23486d51cdda715072dd752 Author: Jianxun Zhang <jianxun.zhang@linux.intel.com> Date: Tue Jan 12 13:53:56 2016 -0800 kernel/kernel-arch: Explicitly mapping between i386/x86_64 and x86 for kernel ARCH This commit was reverted in krogoth and master; it also needs to be reverted from jethro. 62080 2 tom.zanussi 2016-05-10 21:51:25 +0000 Patch submitted to oe-core 62476 3 tom.zanussi 2016-05-26 14:58:58 +0000 http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=jethro&id=00b016b010298c4f83f16afa8e3b49889b4eb24e
