perf build: Add pylint build tests

2025-03-24T16:38:20Z

If PYLINT=1 is passed to the build then run pylint over python code in perf. Unlike shellcheck this isn't default on as there are currently too many errors. An example of an error: ``` ************* Module setup util/setup.py:19:0: C0301: Line too long (127/100) (line-too-long) util/setup.py:20:0: C0301: Line too long (138/100) (line-too-long) util/setup.py:63:0: C0301: Line too long (106/100) (line-too-long) util/setup.py:1:0: C0114: Missing module docstring (missing-module-docstring) util/setup.py:24:4: W0622: Redefining built-in 'vars' (redefined-builtin) util/setup.py:11:4: C0103: Constant name "cc_options" doesn't conform to UPPER_CASE naming style (invalid-name) util/setup.py:13:4: C0103: Constant name "cc_options" doesn't conform to UPPER_CASE naming style (invalid-name) util/setup.py:15:34: R1732: Consider using 'with' for resource-allocating operations (consider-using-with) util/setup.py:18:0: C0116: Missing function or method docstring (missing-function-docstring) util/setup.py:19:16: R1732: Consider using 'with' for resource-allocating operations (consider-using-with) util/setup.py:44:0: C0413: Import "from setuptools import setup, Extension" should be placed at the top of the module (wrong-import-position) util/setup.py:46:0: C0413: Import "from setuptools.command.build_ext import build_ext as _build_ext" should be placed at the top of the module (wrong-import-position) util/setup.py:47:0: C0413: Import "from setuptools.command.install_lib import install_lib as _install_lib" should be placed at the top of the module (wrong-import-position) util/setup.py:49:0: C0115: Missing class docstring (missing-class-docstring) util/setup.py:49:0: C0103: Class name "build_ext" doesn't conform to PascalCase naming style (invalid-name) util/setup.py:52:8: W0201: Attribute 'build_lib' defined outside __init__ (attribute-defined-outside-init) util/setup.py:53:8: W0201: Attribute 'build_temp' defined outside __init__ (attribute-defined-outside-init) util/setup.py:55:0: C0115: Missing class docstring (missing-class-docstring) util/setup.py:55:0: C0103: Class name "install_lib" doesn't conform to PascalCase naming style (invalid-name) util/setup.py:58:8: W0201: Attribute 'build_dir' defined outside __init__ (attribute-defined-outside-init) *----------------------------------------------------------------- Your code has been rated at 6.67/10 (previous run: 6.51/10, +0.16) make[4]: *** [util/Build:442: util/setup.py.pylint_log] Error 1 ``` Reviewed-by: James Clark Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250311213628.569562-5-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

perf build: Rename TEST_LOGS to SHELL_TEST_LOGS

2025-03-24T16:38:20Z

Rename TEST_LOGS to SHELL_TEST_LOGS as later changes will add more kinds of test logs. Minor comment tweak in Makefile.perf as more than just test shell tests are checked.

perf check: Introduce 'check' subcommand

2024-09-04T12:56:05Z

Currently the presence of a feature is checked with a combination of perf version --build-options and greps, such as: perf version --build-options | grep " on .* HAVE_FEATURE" Instead of this, introduce a subcommand "perf check feature", with which scripts can test for presence of a feature, such as: perf check feature HAVE_FEATURE 'perf check feature' command is expected to have exit status of 0 if feature is built-in, and 1 if it's not built-in or if feature is not known. Multiple features can also be passed as a comma-separated list, in which case the exit status will be 1 only if all of the passed features are built-in. For example, with below command, it will have exit status of 0 only if both libtraceevent and bpf are enabled, else 1 in all other cases perf check feature libtraceevent,bpf The arguments are case-insensitive. An array 'supported_features' has also been introduced that can be used by other commands like 'perf version --build-options', so that new features can be added in one place, with the array Committer testing: $ perf check feature libtraceevent,bpf libtraceevent: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT bpf: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT $ perf check feature libtraceevent libtraceevent: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT $ perf check feature bpf bpf: [ on ] # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT $ perf check -q feature bpf && echo "BPF support is present" BPF support is present $ perf check -q feature Bogus && echo "Bogus support is present" $ Reviewed-by: Athira Rajeev Signed-off-by: Aditya Gupta Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Athira Rajeev Cc: Disha Goel Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kajol Jain Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240904061836.55873-3-adityag@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf util: Make util its own library

2024-06-26T18:07:42Z

Make the util directory into its own library. This is done to avoid compiling code twice, once for the perf tool and once for the perf python module. For convenience: arch/common.c scripts/perl/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.c scripts/python/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.c are made part of this library.

perf script: Fix Python support when no libtraceevent

2023-03-15T13:27:07Z

Python scripting can be used without libtraceevent. In particular, scripting for Intel PT does not use tracepoints, and so does not need libtraceevent support. Alter the build and employ conditional compilation to allow Python scripting without libtraceevent. Example: Before: $ ldd `which perf` | grep -i python $ ldd `which perf` | grep -i libtraceevent $ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.031 MB perf.data ] $ perf script intel-pt-events.py |& head -3 Error: Couldn't find script `intel-pt-events.py' See perf script -l for available scripts. After: $ ldd `which perf` | grep -i python libpython3.10.so.1.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.10.so.1.0 (0x00007f4bac400000) $ ldd `which perf` | grep -i libtraceevent $ perf script intel-pt-events.py | head Intel PT Branch Trace, Power Events, Event Trace and PTWRITE Switch In 8021/8021 [000] 11234.097713404 0/0 perf-exec 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098041726 psb offset: 0x0 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) perf-exec 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098041726 cbr 45 freq: 4505 MHz (161%) 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) uname 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098082170 branches:uH tr strt 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) => 7f3a8b9422b0 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) uname 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098082379 branches:uH tr end 7f3a8b9422b0 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) => 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) uname 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098083629 branches:uH tr strt 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) => 7f3a8b9422b0 _start+0x0 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) uname 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098083629 branches:uH call 7f3a8b9422b3 _start+0x3 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) => 7f3a8b943050 _dl_start+0x0 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) uname 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098083837 branches:uH tr end 7f3a8b943060 _dl_start+0x10 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) => 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) IPC: 0.01 (9/938) uname 8021/8021 [000] 11234.098084670 branches:uH tr strt 0 [unknown] ([unknown]) => 7f3a8b943060 _dl_start+0x10 (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) Fixes: 378ef0f5d9d7f465 ("perf build: Use libtraceevent from the system") Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230315084321.14563-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
