When perf is built in a full source tree that is not a git repository,
e.g. from a kernel source tarball, `perf version` will print empty tag
and commit strings:

  $ perf version
  perf version

Currently the tag version is only generated from the root Makefile when
building in a git repository. If PERF-VERSION-FILE has not been
generated and the source tree is not in a git repository, then
PERF-VERSION-GEN will return an empty version.

The problem can be reproduced with the following steps:

  $ wget https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/t/linux-6.0-rc7.tar.gz
  $ tar -xf linux-6.0-rc7.tar.gz && cd linux-6.0-rc7
  $ make -C tools/perf
  $ tools/perf/perf -v
  perf version

Builds from tarballs generated with `make perf-tar-src-pkg` are not
impacted by this issue as PERF-VERSION-FILE is included in the archive.

The perf RPM provided by Fedora for 5.18+ is experiencing this problem.
Package build logs[0] show that the build is attempting to fall back on
PERF-VERSION-FILE, but it is not present.

To resolve this, always use the tag from the root Makefile if available.

Sorry for the breakage. I only considered perf-tar-src-pkg for 
out-of-git building.

This looks ok. But did you consider going back to same flow as 
pre-7572733b8499 to avoid a Makefile check, like:

---8<----

CID=
TAG=
if test -d ../../.git -o -f ../../.git
then
TAG=$(MAKEFLAGS= make -sC ../.. kernelversion)
CID=$(git log -1 --abbrev=12 --pretty=format:"%h" 2>/dev/null) && 
CID="-g$CID"
elif test -f ../../PERF-VERSION-FILE
then
TAG=$(cut -d' ' -f3 ../../PERF-VERSION-FILE | sed -e 's/\"//g')
fi
if test -z "$TAG"
then
TAG=$(MAKEFLAGS= make -sC ../.. kernelversion)
fi

--->8---

The evaluation for $TAG is not really needed in the first leg since the 
fallback does the same thing, but just added for clarity.

Thanks,
John

I think that would be fine as well. I don't have a strong opinion on which one
is easier to follow.

Looking at this more closely, there is a slight difference between the two
approaches. In the problem scenario my patch will always use `make kernelversion`,
while pre-7572733b8499 starts with PERF-VERSION-FILE if available, falling
back to the Makefile.

With the old approach PERF-VERSION-FILE could be used to manually
override the version, but this is inconsistent with how the version is
generated when building in a git repo. Is this relevant?

Hmmm... maybe someone would want to customise PERF-VERSION-FILE for 
their own distro. Not sure. But then fiddling with PERF-VERSION-FILE 
might break the parsing so...I guess not.

BTW, is there any other method of building the perf code not considered? 
So far I know:
a. in git tree
b. perf-tar-src-pkg
c. tarball

Thanks,
John

Yeah, seems like a bad idea. Doing a quick search, Void Linux does seem to be
trying to set a custom version string in their build script[0], but I don't
think passing PERF_VERSION as an argument to make has worked since 2013 with
3cecaa200227 ("perf tools: Do not include PERF-VERSION-FILE to Makefile, 2013-01-16").

Those are all that come to mind for me as well.

Let me know if you'd like me to re-roll the patch using the pre-7572733b8499
approach.

Discussion is going well, proceed, reach a conclusion and from what I'm
seeing, I'll just have to apply it 8-)

I have a slight preference that you do like pre-7572733b8499 if that is 
ok. The reason is that way was a bit more tried and tested.

When perf is built in a full source tree that is not a git repository,
e.g. from a kernel source tarball, `perf version` will print empty tag
and commit strings:

  $ perf version
  perf version

Currently the tag version is only generated from the root Makefile when
building in a git repository. If PERF-VERSION-FILE has not been
generated and the source tree is not in a git repository, then
PERF-VERSION-GEN will return an empty version.

The problem can be reproduced with the following steps:

  $ wget https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/t/linux-6.0-rc7.tar.gz
  $ tar -xf linux-6.0-rc7.tar.gz && cd linux-6.0-rc7
  $ make -C tools/perf
  $ tools/perf/perf -v
  perf version

Builds from tarballs generated with `make perf-tar-src-pkg` are not
impacted by this issue as PERF-VERSION-FILE is included in the archive.

The perf RPM provided by Fedora for 5.18+ is experiencing this problem.
Package build logs[0] show that the build is attempting to fall back on
PERF-VERSION-FILE, but it is not present.

To resolve this, revert back to the previous logic of using the kernel
Makefile version if not in a git repository and PERF-VERSION-FILE does
not exist.
