perf build: Check whether pkg-config is installed when libtraceevent is linked
If pkg-config is not installed when libtraceevent is linked, the build fails. The error information is as follows: $ make <SNIP> In file included from /home/yjh/projects_linux/perf-tool-next/linux/tools/perf/util/evsel.c:43: /home/yjh/projects_linux/perf-tool-next/linux/tools/perf/util/trace-event.h:149:62: error: operator '&&' has no right operand 149 | #if defined(LIBTRACEEVENT_VERSION) && LIBTRACEEVENT_VERSION >= MAKE_LIBTRACEEVENT_VERSION(1, 5, 0) | ^~ error: command '/usr/bin/gcc' failed with exit code 1 cp: cannot stat 'python_ext_build/lib/perf*.so': No such file or directory make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:668: python/perf.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Because pkg-config is not installed, fail to get libtraceevent version in Makefile.config file. As a result, LIBTRACEEVENT_VERSION is empty. However, the preceding error information is not user-friendly. Identify errors in advance by checking that pkg-config is installed at compile time. The build results of various scenarios are as follows: 1. build successful when libtraceevent is not linked and pkg-config is not installed $ pkg-config --version -bash: /usr/bin/pkg-config: No such file or directory $ make clean >/dev/null $ make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 >/dev/null Makefile.config:1133: No alternatives command found, you need to set JDIR= to point to the root of your Java directory PERF_VERSION = 6.7.rc6.gd988c9f5 $ echo $? 0 2. dummy pkg-config is missing when libtraceevent is linked $ pkg-config --version -bash: /usr/bin/pkg-config: No such file or directory $ make clean >/dev/null $ make >/dev/null Makefile.config:221: *** Error: pkg-config needed by libtraceevent is missing on this system, please install it.
