selftests/ftrace: Update test for more eprobe removal process

2021-10-13T23:27:53+00:00

The removal of eprobes was broken and missed in testing. Add various ways to remove eprobes that are considered acceptable to the testing process to catch when/if they break again.

selftests/ftrace: Exclude "(fault)" in testing add/remove eprobe events

2021-09-08T19:29:16+00:00

The original test for adding and removing eprobes used synthetic events and retrieved the filename from the open system call at the end of the system call. This would allow it to always be loaded into the page tables when accessed. Masami suggested that the test was too complex for just testing add and remove, so it was changed to test just adding and removing an event probe on top of the start of the open system call event. Now it is possible that the filename will not be loaded into memory at the time the eprobe is triggered, and will result in "(fault)" being displayed in the event. This causes the test to fail. Account for "(fault)" also being one of the values of the filename field of the event probe.

selftests/ftrace: Add selftest for testing duplicate eprobes and kprobes

2021-08-21T14:25:52+00:00

Add a selftest that makes sure that eprobes and kprobes can not be created with the same group and name as existing events.

selftests/ftrace: Add selftest for testing eprobe events on synthetic events

2021-08-21T14:25:34+00:00

Add a test to test event probes, by creating a synthetic event across sys_enter_openat and sys_exit_openat that passes the filename pointer from the enter of the system call to the exit, and then add an event probe to the synthetic event to make sure that the file name is seen.

selftests/ftrace: Fix requirement check of README file

2021-08-21T14:25:00+00:00

The selftest for ftrace checks some features by checking if the README has text that states the feature is supported by that kernel. Unfortunately, this check gives false positives because it many not be checked if there's spaces in the string to check. This is due to the compare between the required variable with the ":README" string stripped, because neither has quotes around them.

selftests/ftrace: Add clear_dynamic_events() to test cases

2021-08-20T18:19:27+00:00

Add a function to remove all dynamic events from the tracing directory. It requires a loop as some of the dynamic events may depend on others being removed first. Also add a safety that prevents it from looping infinitely due to a bug where an event never gets removed.

selftests/ftrace: fix event-no-pid on 1-core machine

2021-06-24T00:29:26+00:00

When running event-no-pid test on small machines (e.g. cloud 1-core instance), other events might not happen: + cat trace + cnt=0 + [ 0 -eq 0 ] + fail No other events were recorded [15] event tracing - restricts events based on pid notrace filtering [FAIL] Schedule a simple sleep task to be sure that some other process events get recorded.
