The previous change to Python autodetection had a small mistake where
the auto value was used to determine the Python binary, rather than the
user supplied value. The Python binary is only used for one part of the
build process, rather than the final linking, so it was producing
correct builds in most scenarios, especially when the auto detected
value matched what the user wanted, or the system only had a valid set
of Pythons.
Change it so that the Python binary path is derived from either the
PYTHON_CONFIG value or PYTHON value, depending on what is specified by
the user. This was the original intention.
This error was spotted in a build failure an odd cross compilation
environment after commit 4c41cb46a7 ("perf python: Prefer
python3") was merged.

binutils changed the signature of init_disassemble_info(), which now causes
compilation failures for tools/perf/util/annotate.c, e.g. on debian
unstable.
Relevant binutils commit:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=60a3da00bd5407f07
Wire up the feature test and switch to init_disassemble_info_compat(),
which were introduced in prior commits, fixing the compilation failure.
I verified that perf can still disassemble bpf programs by using bpftrace
under load, recording a perf trace, and then annotating the bpf "function"
with and without the changes. With old binutils there's no change in output
before/after this patch. When comparing the output from old binutils (2.35)
to new bintuils with the patch (upstream snapshot) there are a few output
differences, but they are unrelated to this patch. An example hunk is:
1.15 : 55:mov %rbp,%rdx
0.00 : 58:add $0xfffffffffffffff8,%rdx
0.00 : 5c:xor %ecx,%ecx

Avi Kivity reported a problem where the __weak
btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() in tools/perf/util/bpf-event.c was being
used and it called btf__get_from_id() in tools/lib/bpf/btf.c that in
turn called back to btf__load_from_kernel_by_id(), resulting in an
endless loop.
Fix this by adding a feature test to check if
btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() is available when building perf with
LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1, and if not then provide the fallback to the old
btf__get_from_id(), that doesn't call back to btf__load_from_kernel_by_id()
since at that time it didn't exist at all.
Tested on Fedora 35 where we have libbpf-devel 0.4.0 with LIBBPF_DYNAMIC

This fixes the issue where the build will fail if only the Python2
runtime is installed but the Python3 devtools are installed. Currently
the workaround is 'make PYTHON=python3'.
Fix it by autodetecting Python based on whether python[x]-config exists
rather than just python[x] because both are needed for the build. Then
-config is stripped to find the Python runtime.
Testing
=======
* Auto detect links with Python3 when the v3 devtools are installed
and only Python 2 runtime is installed
* Auto detect links with Python2 when both devtools are installed
* Sensible warning is printed if no Python devtools are installed
* 'make PYTHON=x' still automatically sets PYTHON_CONFIG=x-config
* 'make PYTHON=x' fails if x-config doesn't exist
* 'make PYTHON=python3' overrides Python2 devtools
* 'make PYTHON=python2' overrides Python3 devtools
* 'make PYTHON_CONFIG=x-config' works
* 'make PYTHON=x PYTHON_CONFIG=x' works
* 'make PYTHON=missing' reports an error
* 'make PYTHON_CONFIG=missing' reports an error

Yes, I think that is probably the best solution. As far as I can tell,
at least in this file and context, the warning appears harmless, as the
"create a GNU C statement expression from two different macros" is very
much intentional, based on the presence of PERL_USE_GCC_BRACE_GROUPS.
The warning is fixed in upstream Perl by just avoiding creating GNU C
statement expressions using STMT_START and STMT_END:
https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/18780https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/18984
If I am reading the source code correctly, an alternative to disabling
the warning would be specifying -DPERL_GCC_BRACE_GROUPS_FORBIDDEN but it
seems like that might end up impacting more than just this site,
according to the issue discussion above.

Since 66dfdff03d ("perf tools: Add Python 3 support") we don't use
the tools/build/feature/test-libpython-version.c version in any Makefile
feature check:
$ find tools/ -type f | xargs grep feature-libpython-version
$
The only place where this was used was removed in 66dfdff03d:
- ifneq ($(feature-libpython-version), 1)
- $(warning Python 3 is not yet supported; please set)
- $(warning PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.)
- $(warning If you also have Python 2 installed, then)
- $(warning try something like:)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(warning $(and ,) make PYTHON=python2)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(warning Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(warning $(and ,) make NO_LIBPYTHON=1)
- $(warning $(and ,))
- $(error $(and ,))
- else
- LDFLAGS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LDFLAGS)
- EXTLIBS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LIBADD)
- LANG_BINDINGS += $(obj-perf)python/perf.so
- $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBPYTHON)
- endif
And nowadays we either build with PYTHON=python3 or just install the
python3 devel packages and perf will build against it.
But the leftover feature-libpython-version check made the fast path
feature detection to break in all cases except when python2 devel files
were installed:
$ rpm -qa | grep python.*devel
python3-devel-3.9.7-1.fc34.x86_64
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin

$
As python3 is the norm these days, fix this by just removing the unused
feature-libpython-version feature check, making the test-all fast path
to work with the common case.
With this:
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;

When build perf tool with passing option 'CORESIGHT=1' explicitly, if
the feature test fails for library libopencsd, the build doesn't
complain the feature failure and continue to build the tool with
disabling the CoreSight feature insteadly.
This patch changes the building behaviour, when build perf tool with the
option 'CORESIGHT=1' and detect the failure for testing feature
libopencsd, the build process will be aborted and it shows the complaint
info.
Committer testing:
First make sure there is no opencsd library installed:
$ rpm -qa | grep -i csd
$ sudo rm -rf `find /usr/local -name "*csd*"`
$ find /usr/local -name "*csd*"
$
Then cleanup the perf build output directory:
$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
$
And try to build explicitely asking for coresight:
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j24' parallel build
HOSTCC /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
HOSTLD /tmp/build/perf/fixdep-in.o
LINK /tmp/build/perf/fixdep
Makefile.config:493: *** Error: No libopencsd library found or the version is not up-to-date. Please install recent libopencsd to build with CORESIGHT=1. Stop.
make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:238: sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:113: install-bin] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
$
Now install the opencsd library present in Fedora 34:
$ sudo dnf install opencsd-devel
<SNIP>
Installed:
opencsd-1.0.0-1.fc34.x86_64 opencsd-devel-1.0.0-1.fc34.x86_64
Complete!
$
Try again building with coresight:
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin
make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j24' parallel build
Makefile.config:493: *** Error: No libopencsd library found or the version is not up-to-date. Please install recent libopencsd to build with CORESIGHT=1. Stop.
make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:238: sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:113: install-bin] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
$
Since Fedora 34 is pretty recent, one assumes we need to get it from its
upstream git repository, use rpm to find where that is:
$ rpm -q --qf "%{URL}\n" opencsd
https://github.com/Linaro/OpenCSD
$
Go there, clone the repo, build it and install into /usr/local, then try
again:
$ cd ~acme/git/perf
$ make O=/tmp/build/perf VF=1 CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin | grep -i opencsd
... libopencsd: [ on ]
PERF_VERSION = 5.14.g454719f67a3d
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
$ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep opencsd
libopencsd_c_api.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libopencsd_c_api.so.1 (0x00007f28f78a4000)
libopencsd.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libopencsd.so.1 (0x00007f28f6a2e000)
$
Now it works.

We were doing it in tools/build/Makefile.feature, after running the
feature checks, but then in tools/perf/Makefile.config we can call more

libbfd wasn't detected and we add libraries to the LDFLAGS of its
feature check to try again, etc.

Feature detection is done in tools/build/Makefile.feature, we may exit
there with some features not detected and then, in
tools/perf/Makefile.config try adding extra libraries to link and then
do extra feature checks to see if we now find the feature.
This is the case with the disassembler-four-args that checks if the
diassembler() function in libopcodes (binutils) has a signature with
one or with four arguments, as this is not ABI and they changed it at
some point.
This is not a problem when doing normal builds, for instance:
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf
As we don't use what is in FEATURE-DUMP at that point, but is a problem
if we pass FEATURE_DUMP=/previously-detected-features as we do in
'make -C tools/perf build-test' to reuse the feature detection in the
many build combinations we test there.
When that is done feature-disassembler-four-args will be set to 0, but
opensuse 15.1 has the four arguments function signature in
disassembler(). The build thus fails.
Fix it by rewriting the FEATURE-DUMP file at the end of
tools/perf/Makefile.config to register features we retested in that make
file.

Currently we support only static linking with kernel's libtraceevent
(tools/lib/traceevent). This patch adds libtraceevent package detection
and support to link perf with it dynamically.
The libtraceevent package status is displayed with:
$ make VF=1 LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC=1
...
... libtraceevent: [ on ]

To avoid breaking the build by mixing files compiled with things coming
from distro specific compiler options for perl with the rest of perf,
i.e. to avoid this:
`.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro' referenced in section `.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro' of /tmp/build/perf/util/scripting-engines/perf-in.o: defined in discarded section `.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro[wm4.stdcpredef.h.19.8dc41bed5d9037ff9622e015fb5f0ce3]' of /tmp/build/perf/util/scripting-engines/perf-in.o
Noticed on Fedora 33.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
- Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit
stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP
back-pressure.
Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain.
- Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user
space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to
declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies
(min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular
commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead
of kernel version parsing or trial and error).
- Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in
bridge.
- Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces.
- Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK
packets of TCPv6.
- In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on
multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising
addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options.
- Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet
deployments.
- Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC.
- Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and
ISO 15765-2:2016.
- Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit
kernel problem.
- Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs.
- Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop
objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary
notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by
converting to a blocking notifier.
- Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs,
opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP
option use.
- Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify
life of TCP CC implemented in BPF.
- Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading
them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing
all the user space infra we have.
- Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing.
- Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct
path'.
- Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls.
- Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps.
- Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as
well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use
is for pretty printing structures).
- Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf
syscall.
- Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow
specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset
during update; report expected max time operation may take to users;
support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of
how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not).
- Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard
counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space.
- Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many
drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx,
dpaa2-eth).
- In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms.
Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and
support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface.
- Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver.
- Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to
mscc_ocelot switches.
- Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as
fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in
dpaa-eth.
- Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3)
offload.
- Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have
this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS.
- Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as
7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP.
- Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver,
and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx.
- Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads on
recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share a
descriptor entry.
- Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the
crypto subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy
directory.
- Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed
subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free.
- Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their
code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this
conversion is not yet complete).

Some distros don't come with python2 and only have python3 available.
This causes the "'import perf' in python" self test to fail.
This change adds python3 to the list of possible python versions
that are autodetected but maintains the priorities for
'python2' and 'python' detection. Python3 has the lowest priority.
Committer notes:
On a fedora system without python2 packages the 'perf test python'
continues to work:
# python2
bash: python2: command not found...
Similar command is: 'python'
# rpm -qa | grep python2
#
That "Similar command" gives the clue:
# rpm -qf /usr/bin/python
python-unversioned-command-3.8.5-5.fc32.noarch
# rpm -ql python-unversioned-command
/usr/bin/python
/usr/share/man/man1/python.1.gz
#
With it in place the 'python' binary is found and perf builds the python
binding using python3:
# perf test -v python
19: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 379988
python usage test: "echo "import sys ; sys.path.append('/tmp/build/perf/python'); import perf" | '/usr/bin/python' "
test child finished with 0
---- end ----

Currently the BUILD_BUG() macro is expanded to the following:
do {
extern void __compiletime_assert_0(void)
__attribute__((error("BUILD_BUG failed")));
if (!(!(1)))
__compiletime_assert_0();
} while (0);
If used in a function body this would obviously produce build errors
with -Wnested-externs and -Werror.
To enable BUILD_BUG() usage in tools/arch/x86/lib/insn.c which perf
includes in intel-pt-decoder, build perf without -Wnested-externs.

This is bitrotting, nobody is stepping up to work on it, and since we
treat warnings as errors, feature detection is failing in its main,
faster test (tools/build/feature/test-all.c) because of the GTK+2
infobar check.
So make this opt-in, at some point ditch this if nobody volunteers to
take care of this.
