perf test: Fix a build error in x86 topdown test

2025-08-18T18:52:22+00:00

There's an environment that caused the following build error. Include "debug.h" (under util directory) to fix it. arch/x86/tests/topdown.c: In function 'event_cb': arch/x86/tests/topdown.c:53:25: error: implicit declaration of function 'pr_debug' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] 53 | pr_debug("Broken topdown information for '%s'\n", evsel__name(evsel)); | ^~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250815164122.289651-1-namhyung@kernel.org Fixes: 5b546de9cc177936 ("perf topdown: Use attribute to see an event is a topdown metic or slots") Reported-by: Naresh Kamboju Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

perf test: Move PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT parsing to common test

2025-07-25T17:37:58+00:00

test__x86_sample_parsing is identical to test__sample_parsing except it explicitly tested PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT. Now the parsing code is common move the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT to the common sample parsing test and remove the x86 version.

perf sample: Remove arch notion of sample parsing

2025-07-25T17:37:58+00:00

By definition arch sample parsing and synthesis will inhibit certain kinds of cross-platform record then analysis (report, script, etc.). Remove arch_perf_parse_sample_weight and arch_perf_synthesize_sample_weight replacing with a common implementation. Combine perf_sample p_stage_cyc and retire_lat as weight3 to capture the differing uses regardless of compiled for architecture.

perf topdown: Use attribute to see an event is a topdown metic or slots

2025-07-24T20:41:35+00:00

The string comparisons were overly broad and could fire for the incorrect PMU and events. Switch to using the config in the attribute then add a perf test to confirm the attribute config values match those of parsed events of that name and don't match others. This exposed matches for slots events that shouldn't have matched as the slots fixed counter event, such as topdown.slots_p.

When someone has a global shellcheckrc file, for example at ~/.config/shellcheckrc, with the directive 'shell=sh', building perf will fail with many shellcheck errors like: In tests/shell/base_probe/test_adding_kernel.sh line 294: (( TEST_RESULT += $? )) ^---------------------^ SC3006 (warning): In POSIX sh, standalone ((..)) is undefined.

perf test amd: Skip amd-ibs-period test on kernel < v6.15

2025-05-21T18:07:13+00:00

Bunch of IBS kernel fixes went in v6.15-rc1 [1]. The amd-ibs-period test will fail without those kernel patches. Skip the test on system running kernel older than v6.15 to distinguish genuine new failures vs known failure due to old kernel. Since all the related IBS fixes went in -rc1 itself, the ">= 6.15" check will work for any custom compiled v6.15-* kernel as well.

perf sample: Make user_regs and intr_regs optional

2025-02-13T04:06:11+00:00

The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian Barnes as about 2.5% when running `perf script --itrace=i0`: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d841b97b3ad2ca8bcab07e4293375fb7c32dfce7.1736618095.git.tavianator@tavianator.com/ Adrian Hunter replied that the zero initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed. This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit functions are created and added throughout the code base.
