            Bug ID: 30893
           Summary: gprofng uses syscall + perf_event (hwcdrv) and ptrace
                    (gpcollect) without any check and doc
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.41
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gprofng
          Assignee: vladimir.mezentsev at oracle dot com
          Reporter: bugmenot at mailinator dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

gprofng should either have an option to build without syscall + perf_event or
an explicit check in configure for the necessary headers.

Similar ptrace should also be tested.

Note: both are also not mentioned in the dependencies in the README either
