perf test attr: Fix ignored test case result

2017-12-09T17:42:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit 22905582f6dd4bbd0c370fe5732c607452010c04 ]

Command perf test -v 16 (Setup struct perf_event_attr test) always
reports success even if the test case fails.  It works correctly if you
also specify -F (for don't fork).

   root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -v 16
   15: Setup struct perf_event_attr               :
   --- start ---
   running './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay'
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB /tmp/tmp4E1h7R/perf.data
     (1 samples) ]
   expected task=0, got 1
   expected precise_ip=0, got 3
   expected wakeup_events=1, got 0
   FAILED './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay' - match failure
   test child finished with 0
   ---- end ----
   Setup struct perf_event_attr: Ok

The reason for the wrong error reporting is the return value of the
system() library call. It is called in run_dir() file tests/attr.c and
returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00.

This value is given as parameter to the exit() function which can only
handle values 0-0xff.

The child process terminates with exit value of 0 and the parent does
not detect any error.

This patch corrects the error reporting and prints the correct test
result.

perf test: Keep test result clean if '-v' not set

2015-11-03T14:45:40+00:00

According to [1], 'perf test' should avoid output too much information
if '-v' is not set, only 'Ok', 'FAIL' or 'Skip' need to be printed.

This patch removes several messages sent directly to stderr to make
the output clean.

Before this patch:

  # perf test dummy
  23: Test using a dummy software event to keep tracking       : (not supported) Ok

After this patch:

  # perf test dummy
  23: Test using a dummy software event to keep tracking       : Skip

perf tests: Make attr script verbose friendly

2013-03-15T16:05:59+00:00

Making the attr test script runner to pass proper verbose option. Also
making single '-v' be more reader friendly and display just the test
name.

Making the current output to be display for '-vv'.

perf tools, powerpc: Fix compile warnings in tests/attr.c

2013-01-30T13:37:14+00:00

We print several '__u64' quantities using '%llu'. On powerpc, we by
default include ' which results in __u64 being an
unsigned long. This causes compile warnings which are treated as errors
due to '-Werror'.

By defining __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ we include 
and define __u64 as unsigned long long.

Changelog[v2]:
	[Michael Ellerman] Use __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ and avoid PRIu64
	format specifier - which as Jiri Olsa pointed out, breaks on x86-64.

perf tests: Check python path on attr and binding test

2013-01-24T19:40:10+00:00

Current perf test code tries to execute python version 2 in order to
test attributes on perf_event_open syscall.  However it's not default
python version anymore a system can have python v3 only or v2 with a
different name (e.g. python2).  So if there's no such python interpreter
with the name 'python', the test would fail like this (yes, it's
happened on my new archlinux laptop :).

13: struct perf_event_attr setup                 :sh: python: command not found
 FAILED!

As we can pass name of the python interpreter on make, use it for
the attr test also.

perf python: Fix breakage introduced by the test_attr infrastructure

2013-01-24T19:40:09+00:00

The test_attr infrastructure hooks on the sys_perf_event_open call,
checking if a variable is set and if so calling a function to intercept
calls and do the checking.

But both the variable and the function aren't on objects that are
linked on the python binding, breaking it:

  # perf test -v 15
  15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems       :
  --- start ---
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "", line 1, in 
  ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf//python/perf.so: undefined symbol: test_attr__enabled
  ---- end ----
  Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
  #

Fix it by moving the variable to one of the linked object files and
providing a stub for the function in the python.o object, that is only
linked in the python binding.

Now 'perf test' is happy again:

  # perf test 15
  15: Try 'use perf' in python, checking link problems       : Ok
