The test_attr infrastructure hooks on the sys_perf_event_open call, checking if a variable is set and if so calling a function to intercept calls and do the checking. But both the variable and the function aren't on objects that are linked on the python binding, breaking it: # perf test -v 15 15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems : --- start --- Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf//python/perf.so: undefined symbol: test_attr__enabled ---- end ---- Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED! # Fix it by moving the variable to one of the linked object files and providing a stub for the function in the python.o object, that is only linked in the python binding. Now 'perf test' is happy again: # perf test 15 15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems : Ok # Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-0rsca2kn44b38rgdpr3tz6n5@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |
