Subject[PATCH 03/19] perf tools: Use readdir() instead of deprecated readdir_r()
Date
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a
DIR, which is the case when synthesizing events for pre-existing threads
by traversing /proc, so, to avoid breaking the build with glibc-2.23.90
(upcoming 2.24), use it instead of readdir_r().

See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html

"However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation),
concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams
are thread-safe. In cases where multiple threads must read from the
same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is
still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function."

Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.
