perf test shell arm_coresight: Increase buffer size for Coresight basic tests

2024-06-12T09:39:12+00:00

[ Upstream commit 10b6ee3b597b1b1b4dc390aaf9d589664af31df9 ] These tests record in a mode that includes kernel trace but look for samples of a userspace process. This makes them sensitive to any kernel compilation options that increase the amount of time spent in the kernel. If the trace buffer is completely filled before userspace is reached then the test will fail. Double the buffer size to fix this. The other tests in the same file aren't sensitive to this for various reasons, for example the iterate devices test filters by userspace trace only. But in order to keep coverage of all the modes, increase the buffer size rather than filtering by userspace for the basic tests.

perf tests: Apply attributes to all events in object code reading test

2024-06-12T09:39:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2dade41a533f337447b945239b87ff31a8857890 ] PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE results in multiple events being opened on heterogeneous systems. Currently this test only sets its required attributes on the first event. Not disabling enable_on_exec on the other events causes the test to fail because the forked objdump processes are sampled. No tracking event is opened so Perf only knows about its own mappings causing the objdump samples to give the following error: $ perf test -vvv "object code reading" Reading object code for memory address: 0xffff9aaa55ec thread__find_map failed ---- end(-1) ---- 24: Object code reading : FAILED!

perf tests: Make "test data symbol" more robust on Neoverse N1

2024-06-12T09:39:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 256ef072b3842273ce703db18b603b051aca95fe ] To prevent anyone from seeing a test failure appear as a regression and thinking that it was caused by their code change, insert some noise into the loop which makes it immune to sampling bias issues (errata 1694299). The "test data symbol" test can fail with any unrelated change that shifts the loop into an unfortunate position in the Perf binary which is almost impossible to debug as the root cause of the test failure. Ultimately it's caused by the referenced errata.

perf tests: Add option to run tests in parallel

2024-02-22T17:13:20+00:00

By default tests are forked, add an option (-p or --parallel) so that the forked tests are all started in parallel and then their output gathered serially. This is opt-in as running in parallel can cause test flakes. Rather than fork within the code, the start_command/finish_command from libsubcmd are used. This changes how stderr and stdout are handled. The child stderr and stdout are always read to avoid the child blocking. If verbose is 1 (-v) then if the test fails the child stdout and stderr are displayed. If the verbose is >1 (e.g. -vv) then the stdout and stderr from the child are immediately displayed. An unscientific test on my laptop shows the wall clock time for perf test without parallel being 5 minutes 21 seconds and with parallel (-p) being 1 minute 50 seconds.

perf tests: Run time generate shell test suites

2024-02-22T17:13:06+00:00

Rather than special shell test logic, do a single pass to create an array of test suites. Hold the shell test file name in the test suite priv field. This makes the special shell test logic in builtin-test.c redundant so remove it.

perf tests: Use scandirat for shell script finding

2024-02-22T17:12:53+00:00

Avoid filename appending buffers by using openat, faccessat and scandirat more widely. Turn the script's path back to a file name using readlink from /proc//fd/. Read the script's description using api/io.h to avoid fdopen conversions. Whilst reading perform additional sanity checks on the script's contents.
