Hi Ian,
I applied this patch series based on the head of the perf/core
branch, but it failed when do make.
My python version:
Python 2.7.18 (default, Mar 8 2021, 13:02:45)

Hi Zhengjun,
Thanks for testing! You are running the test script and not the main
build. Unlike the main build I didn't add a Python version test for
the test script. As mentioned in the cover letter you need Python 3.6
as Python 2 was sunset in 2020.
In fact, I run the main build,
$ cd tools/perf
$ make
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal
The default python in Ubuntu 20.04.3 is Python2
I think a lot of developers also use the Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS,
it's better to support python2.
Thanks,
Ian

jevents.c is large, has a dependency on an old forked version of jsmn,
and is challenging to work upon. A lot of jevents.c's complexity comes
from needing to write json and csv parsing from first principles. In
contrast python has this functionality in standard libraries and is
already a build pre-requisite for tools like asciidoc (that builds all
of the perf man pages).
Introduce jevents.py that produces identical output to jevents.c. Add a
test that runs both converter tools and validates there are no output
differences. The test can be invoked with a phony build target like:
make -C tools/perf jevents-py-test
The python code deliberately tries to replicate the behavior of
jevents.c so that the output matches and transitioning tools shouldn't
introduce regressions. In some cases the code isn't as elegant as hoped,
but fixing this can be done as follow up.
