a bug of perf

Hi,

I met perf bug by meta-freescale as following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
tmp/work/armv8-linux/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/perf-in.o: in function `find_address_in_section':
| /usr/src/debug/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/tools/perf/util/srcline.c:200: undefined reference to `bfd_get_section_flags'
perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin/aarch64-linux/../../libexec/aarch64-linux/gcc/aarch64-linux/9.3.0/ld: /usr/src/debug/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/tools/perf/util/srcline.c:204: undefined reference to `bfd_get_section_vma'

I found that this bug has been fixed in upstream:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
commit f4d7dbafb103e4f782323017c239c548871c1567

perf: Make perf able to build with latest libbfd

libbfd has changed the bfd_section_* macros to inline functions
bfd_section_<field> since 2019-09-18. See below two commits:
o http://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-cvs/2019-09/msg00064.html
o https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-cvs/2019-09/msg00072.html

This fix make perf able to build with both old and new libbfd.

I want to know when linux-qoriq will be updated next time?
