perf test: Fix wrong size expectation for 'Setup struct perf_event_attr'

2023-05-17T12:01:49+00:00

[ Upstream commit 30df88a80f32ccca5c5cdcf2710d1fb2de5e314d ] The test case "perf test 'Setup struct perf_event_attr'" is failing.

perf evlist: Remove group option.

2022-12-14T18:28:18+00:00

The group option predates grouping events using curly braces added in commit 89efb029502d7f2d ("perf tools: Add support to parse event group syntax"). The --group option was retained for legacy support (in August 2012) but keeping it adds complexity.

2022-10-15T13:13:16+00:00

Since PERF_FORMAT_LOST was added, the default read format has that bit set, so add it to the tests. Keep the old value as well so that the test still passes on older kernels.

perf tests attr: Add missing topdown metrics events

2021-10-05T17:55:38+00:00

The Topdown metrics events were added as 'perf stat' default events since commit 42641d6f4d15e6db ("perf stat: Add Topdown metrics events as default events"). However, the perf attr tests were not updated accordingly. The perf attr test fails on the platform which supports Topdown metrics. # perf test 17 17: Setup struct perf_event_attr :FAILED! Add Topdown metrics events into perf attr test cases. Make them optional since they are only available on newer platforms.

perf test: Test 17 fails with make LIBPFM4=1 on s390 z/VM

2021-06-01T13:57:39+00:00

This test case fails on s390 virtual machine z/VM which has no PMU support when the perf tool is built with LIBPFM4=1. Using make LIBPFM4=1 builds the perf tool with support for libpfm event notation. The command line flag --pfm-events is valid: # ./perf record --pfm-events cycles -- true [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data (2 samples) ] # However the command 'perf test -Fv 17' fails on s390 z/VM virtual machine with LIBPFM4=1: # perf test -Fv 17 17: Setup struct perf_event_attr : --- start --- ..... running './tests/attr/test-record-group2' unsupp './tests/attr/test-record-group2' running './tests/attr/test-record-pfm-period' expected exclude_hv=0, got 1 FAILED './tests/attr/test-record-pfm-period' - match failure ---- end ---- Setup struct perf_event_attr: FAILED! When --pfm-event system is not supported, the test returns unsupported and continues. Here is an example using a virtual machine on x86 and Fedora 34: [root@f33 perf]# perf test -Fv 17 17: Setup struct perf_event_attr : --- start --- ..... running './tests/attr/test-record-group2' unsupp './tests/attr/test-record-group2' running './tests/attr/test-record-pfm-period' unsupp './tests/attr/test-record-pfm-period' .... The issue is file ./tests/attr/test-record-pfm-period which requires perf event attribute member exclude_hv to be zero. This is not the case on s390 where the value of exclude_hv is one when executing on a z/VM virtual machine without PMU hardware support. Fix this by allowing value exlucde_hv to be zero or one. Output before: # /usr/bin/python ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ -t \ test-record-pfm-period -p ./perf -vvv 2>&1| fgrep match matching [event:base-record] match: [event:base-record] matches [] FAILED './tests/attr//test-record-pfm-period' - match failure # Output after: # /usr/bin/python ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ -t \ test-record-pfm-period -p ./perf -vvv 2>&1| fgrep match matching [event:base-record] match: [event:base-record] matches ['event-1-0-6', 'event-1-0-5'] matched Background: Using libpfm library ends up in this function call sequence pfm_get_perf_event_encoding() +-- pfm_get_os_event_encoding() +-- pfmlib_perf_event_encode() is called when no hardware specific PMU unit can be detected as in the s390 z/VM virtual machine case. This uses the "perf_events generic PMU" data structure which sets exclude_hv to 1 per default. Using this PMU that test case always fails. That is the reason why exclude_hv attribute setting varies. Version 2: As suggested by Ian Rogers make perf_event_attribute member exclude_hv more robust and accept value 0 or 1 to handle more test cases which might fail on s390 virtual machine z/VM.
