Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 3d1d57debe tools build: Remove needless libpython-version feature check that breaks test-all fast path 
Since 66dfdff03d ("perf tools: Add Python 3 support") we don't use
the tools/build/feature/test-libpython-version.c version in any Makefile
feature check:

  $ find tools/ -type f | xargs grep feature-libpython-version
  $

The only place where this was used was removed in 66dfdff03d:

  -        ifneq ($(feature-libpython-version), 1)
  -          $(warning Python 3 is not yet supported; please set)
  -          $(warning PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.)
  -          $(warning If you also have Python 2 installed, then)
  -          $(warning try something like:)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(warning $(and ,)  make PYTHON=python2)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(warning Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(warning $(and ,)  make NO_LIBPYTHON=1)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(error   $(and ,))
  -        else
  -          LDFLAGS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LDFLAGS)
  -          EXTLIBS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LIBADD)
  -          LANG_BINDINGS += $(obj-perf)python/perf.so
  -          $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBPYTHON)
  -        endif

And nowadays we either build with PYTHON=python3 or just install the
python3 devel packages and perf will build against it.

But the leftover feature-libpython-version check made the fast path
feature detection to break in all cases except when python2 devel files
were installed:

  $ rpm -qa | grep python.*devel
  python3-devel-3.9.7-1.fc34.x86_64
  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j32' parallel build
    HOSTCC  /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
  <SNIP>
  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  In file included from test-all.c:18:
  test-libpython-version.c:5:10: error: #error
      5 |         #error
        |          ^~~~~
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python
	libpython3.9.so.1.0 => /lib64/libpython3.9.so.1.0 (0x00007fda6dbcf000)
  $

As python3 is the norm these days, fix this by just removing the unused
feature-libpython-version feature check, making the test-all fast path
to work with the common case.

With this:

  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin |& head
  make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j32' parallel build
    HOSTCC  /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
    HOSTLD  /tmp/build/perf/fixdep-in.o
    LINK    /tmp/build/perf/fixdep

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ on  ]
  ...            dwarf_getlocations: [ on  ]
  ...                         glibc: [ on  ]
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python
	libpython3.9.so.1.0 => /lib64/libpython3.9.so.1.0 (0x00007f58800b0000)
  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  $

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
