Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] perf python: split Clang options when invoking Popen
Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2025 17:54:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250930-perf_build_android_ndk-v2-2-2ea440b7ef01@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250930-perf_build_android_ndk-v2-0-2ea440b7ef01@arm.com>

When passing a list to subprocess.Popen, each element maps to one argv
token. Current code bundles multiple Clang flags into a single element,
something like:

  cmd = ['clang',
         '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu -fintegrated-as -Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch',
	 'test-hello.c']

So Clang only sees one long, invalid option instead of separate flags,
as a result, the script cannot capture any log via PIPE.

Fix this by using shlex.split() to separate the string so each option
becomes its own argv element. The fixed list will be:

  cmd = ['clang',
         '--target=x86_64-linux-gnu',
	 '-fintegrated-as',
	 '-Wno-cast-function-type-mismatch',
	 'test-hello.c']

Fixes: 09e6f9f98370 ("perf python: Fix splitting CC into compiler and options")
