[PATCH 1/2] perf build: Add loading python binding check to python.so build

From: Yang Jihong
Date: Mon Oct 30 2023 - 07:16:54 EST


Add loading python binding check to python.so build so that problem can be
detected in advance in the build phase instead of being left to `perf test`
phase.

In normal scenarios, the original build is not affected:

$ cd tools/perf
$ rm -rf /tmp/perf; mkdir /tmp/perf; make O=/tmp/perf
$ echo $?
0
$ cd /tmp/perf
$ ./perf test python
19: 'import perf' in python : Ok

Create an error scenario, for example, delete util/rlimit.c from
util/python-ext-sources:

$ cd tools/perf
$ sed -i 's@util/rlimit.c@#util/rlimit.c@g' util/python-ext-sources
$ grep rlimit util/python-ext-sources
#util/rlimit.c
$ rm -rf /tmp/perf; mkdir /tmp/perf; make JOBS=1 O=/tmp/perf
<SNIP>
GEN /tmp/perf/python/perf.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
Error: Load python binding failed. See /tmp/perf/python_ext_build/lib//build.log for more details
