2024-08-03perf test: Make test_arm_callgraph_fp.sh more robustJames Clark1-4/+16
[ Upstream commit ff16aeb9b83441b8458d4235496cf320189a0c60 ] The 2 second sleep can cause the test to fail on very slow network file systems because Perf ends up being killed before it finishes starting up. Fix it by making the leafloop workload end after a fixed time like the other workloads so there is no need to kill it after 2 seconds. Also remove the 1 second start sampling delay because it is similarly fragile. Instead, search through all samples for a matching one, rather than just checking the first sample and hoping it's in the right place.

2024-06-12perf tests: Make "test data symbol" more robust on Neoverse N1James Clark1-0/+16
[ 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.

2024-01-26perf test: Remove atomics from test_loop to avoid test failuresNick Forrington1-3/+1
[ Upstream commit 72b4ca7e993e94f09bcf6d19fc385a2e8060c71f ] The current use of atomics can lead to test failures, as tests (such as tests/shell/record.sh) search for samples with "test_loop" as the top-most stack frame, but find frames related to the atomic operation (e.g. __aarch64_ldadd4_relax). This change simply removes the "count" variable, as it is not necessary.

2023-01-19perf test workload thloop: Make count increments atomicIan Rogers1-1/+1
The count variable is incremented by multiple threads, doing so without an atomic operation causes thread sanitizer warnings. Switch to using relaxed atomics.

2022-11-23perf test: Add 'datasym' test workloadNamhyung Kim2-0/+26
The datasym workload is to check if perf mem command gets the data addresses precisely. This is needed for data symbol test. $ perf test -w datasym I had to keep the buf1 in the data section, otherwise it could end up in the BSS and was mmaped as a separate //anon region, then it was not symbolized at all. It needs to be fixed separately. Committer notes: Add a -U _FORTIFY_SOURCE to the datasym CFLAGS, as the main perf flags set it and it requires building with optimization, and this new test has a -O0.

2022-11-23perf test: Add 'brstack' test workloadNamhyung Kim2-0/+42
The brstack is to run different kinds of branches repeatedly. This is necessary for brstack test case to verify if it has correct branch info. $ perf test -w brstack I renamed the internal functions to have brstack_ prefix as it's too generic name. Add a -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE to the brstack CFLAGS, as the main perf flags set it and it requires building with optimization, and this new test has a -O0.

2022-11-23perf test: Add 'sqrtloop' test workloadNamhyung Kim2-0/+47
The sqrtloop creates a child process to run an infinite loop calling sqrt() with rand(). This is needed for ARM SPE fork test. $ perf test -w sqrtloop It can take an optional argument to specify how long it will run in seconds (default: 1). Committer notes: Explicitely ignored the sqrt() return to fix the build on systems where the compiler complains it isn't being used. And added a sqrtloop specific CFLAGS to disable optimizations to make this a bit more robust wrt dead code elimination. Doing that a -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE needs to be added, as -O0 is incompatible with it.

2022-11-20perf test: Add -w/--workload optionNamhyung Kim2-0/+35
The -w/--workload option is to run a simple workload used by testing. This adds a basic framework to run the workloads and 'noploop' workload as an example. $ perf test -w noploop The noploop does a loop doing nothing (NOP) for a second by default. It can have an optional argument to specify the time in seconds.
