perf tools: Add Python 3 support
Added Python 3 support while keeping Python 2.7 compatibility. Committer notes: This doesn't make it to auto detect python 3, one has to explicitely ask it to build with python 3 devel files, here are the instructions provided by Jaroslav: --- $ cp -a tools/perf tools/python3-perf $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 all $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/python3-perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 all $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/python3-perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install-python_ext $ make V=1 prefix=/usr -C tools/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install-python_ext --- We need to make this automatic, just like the existing tests for checking if the python2 devel files are in place, allowing the build with python3 if available, fallbacking to python2 and then just disabling it if none are available. So, using the PYTHON variable to build it using O= we get: Before this patch: $ rpm -q python3 python3-devel python3-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64 python3-devel-3.6.4-7.fc27.x86_64 $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf/ ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ; make O=/tmp/build/perf PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 -C tools/perf install-bin make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf' <SNIP> Makefile.config:670: Python 3 is not yet supported; please set Makefile.config:671: PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.
