[PATCH 17/26] perf python: Check if clang supports -fno-semantic-interposition

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

The set of C compiler options used by distros to build python bindings
may include options that are unknown to clang, we check for a variety of
such options, add -fno-semantic-interposition to that mix:

This fixes the build on, among others, Manjaro Linux:

GEN /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so
clang-9: error: unknown argument: '-fno-semantic-interposition'
error: command 'clang' failed with exit status 1
make: Leaving directory '/git/perf/tools/perf'

[perfbuilder@602aed1c266d ~]$ gcc -v
