So, while testing this I notice that we need to do the python3
conversions for these scripts as well:
[acme@quaco adrian]$ objdump -d jmp-to-fn > /tmp/bla
[acme@quaco adrian]$ vim /tmp/bla
[acme@quaco adrian]$ perf record -o jmp-to-fn.perf.data -e intel_pt/cyc/u
./jmp-to-fn
Couldn't synthesize bpf events.
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB jmp-to-fn.perf.data ]
[acme@quaco adrian]$ perf script -i jmp-to-fn.perf.data --itrace=be -s
~/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py jmp-to-fn.db branches
calls
File "/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py", line
103
print datetime.datetime.today(), "Creating database..."
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Error running python script
/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py
[acme@quaco adrian]$
Mostly are simple, i.e. in this case we need something like:
print(str(datetime.datetime.today()) + "Creating database...")
for a really crude conversion, but one that would make this work with
both python2 and python3 (make PYTHON=python3 when building perf).
