+Subject: [oe-core][PATCH 1/1] make btt scripts python3-ready
+
+Many distributions are moving to python3 by default.  Here's
+an attempt to make the python scripts in blktrace python3-ready.
+
+Most of this was done with automated tools.  I hand fixed some
+space-vs tab issues, and cast an array index to integer.  It
+passes rudimentary testing when run under python2.7 as well
+as python3.
+
+This doesn't do anything with the shebangs, it leaves them both
+invoking whatever "env python" coughs up on the system.
+
+Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>
+Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
+
+Unchanged except to modify shebangs to use python3 since
+oe-core does not support python2 anymore.
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport [git://git.kernel.dk/blktrace.git commit 70d5ca2d5...]
