perf tools: Move `try-cc'2011-04-19T11:18:36ZMichael Wittenmfwitten@gmail.com2011-04-12T20:27:59Zurn:sha1:7fbd065f5a2b299172502f09fc3fbde02b48f591
The `try-cc' user-defined function was in tools/perf/feature-tests.mak;
this commit moves it to tools/perf/config/utilities.mak.

perf tools: Makefile: PYTHON{,_CONFIG} to bandage Python 3 incompatibility2011-04-19T11:18:36ZMichael Wittenmfwitten@gmail.com2011-04-02T21:46:09Zurn:sha1:ced465c400b23656ef2c4fbfb4add0e5b92e3d97
Currently, Python 3 is not supported by perf's code; this
can cause the build to fail for systems that have Python 3
installed as the default python:
python{,-config}
The Correct Solution is to write compatibility code so that
Python 3 works out-of-the-box.
However, users often have an ancillary Python 2 installed:
python2{,-config}
Therefore, a quick fix is to allow the user to specify those
ancillary paths as the python binaries that Makefile should
use, thereby avoiding Python 3 altogether; as an added benefit,
the Python binaries may be installed in non-standard locations
without the need for updating any PATH variable.
This commit adds the ability to set PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG
either as environment variables or as make variables on the
command line; the paths may be relative, and usually only PYTHON
is necessary in order for PYTHON_CONFIG to be defined implicitly.
Some rudimentary error checking is performed when the user
explicitly specifies a value for any of these variables.
In addition, this commit introduces significantly robust makefile
infrastructure for working with paths and communicating with the
shell; it's currently only used for handling Python, but I hope
it will prove useful in refactoring the makefiles.
