To avoid this:
util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c: In function 'python_start_script':
util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c:1595:2: error: 'visibility' attribute ignored [-Werror=attributes]
1595 | PyMODINIT_FUNC (*initfunc)(void);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That started breaking when building with PYTHON=python3 and these gcc
versions (I haven't checked with the clang ones, maybe it breaks there
as well):
# export PERF_TARBALL=http://192.168.86.5/perf/perf-5.9.0.tar.xz
# dm fedora:33 fedora:rawhide
1 107.80 fedora:33 : Ok gcc (GCC) 10.2.1
20201005 (Red Hat 10.2.1-5), clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-1.fc33)
2 92.47 fedora:rawhide : Ok gcc (GCC) 10.2.1
20201016 (Red Hat 10.2.1-6), clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-1.fc34)
#
Avoid that by ditching that 'initfunc' function pointer with its:
#define Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL _attribute_ ((visibility ("default")))
#define PyMODINIT_FUNC Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL PyObject*
And just call PyImport_AppendInittab() at the end of the ifdef python3
block with the functions that were being attributed to that initfunc.
