As all the other tools/perf/scripts/python/bin/*-{report,record}
scripts, fixing the this problem reported by Daniel Diaz:
Our OpenEmbedded builds detected an issue with 5287f92692 ("perf
script: Add flamegraph.py script"):
ERROR: perf-1.0-r9 do_package_qa: QA Issue:
/usr/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/bin/flamegraph-report contained
in package perf-python requires /usr/bin/sh, but no providers found in
RDEPENDS_perf-python? [file-rdeps]
This means that there is a new binary pulled in in the shebang line
which was unaccounted for: `/usr/bin/sh`. I don't see any other usage
of /usr/bin/sh in the kernel tree (does not even exist on my Ubuntu
dev machine) but plenty of /bin/sh. This patch is needed:

This script works in tandem with d3-flame-graph to generate flame graphs
from perf. It supports two output formats: JSON and HTML (the default).
The HTML format will look for a standalone d3-flame-graph template file
in /usr/share/d3-flame-graph/d3-flamegraph-base.html and fill in the
collected stacks.
Usage:
perf record -a -g -F 99 sleep 60
perf script report flamegraph
Combined:
perf script flamegraph -a -F 99 sleep 60
Committer testing:
Tested both with "PYTHON=python3" and with the default, that uses
python2-devel:
Complete set of instructions:
$ mkdir /tmp/build/perf
$ make PYTHON=python3 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
$ export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
$ perf record -a -g -F 99 sleep 60
$ perf script report flamegraph
Now go and open the generated flamegraph.html file in a browser.
At first this required building with PYTHON=python3, but after I
reported this Andreas was kind enough to send a patch making it work
with both python and python3.
