I found 'perf record LBR tests' failing due to empty branch stacks.
$ perf test -v LBR
...

The failing cases were in system-wide mode and I realized that the
samples were from the idle tasks (swapper). I suspect going to/from
idle state may affect the LBR contents.
If we can skip empty branch stacks from the idle tasks, the failure
should go away. I can see the following output in perf report -D.
$ perf report -D | grep -m5 -A3 'branch stack: nr:0'

On my alderlake I currently see for the "perf metrics value validation" test:
```

Passed Test Count: 139
[

is [31.137028] in workload(s): ['perf bench futex hash -r 2 -s']
but expected value range is [tma_frontend_bound, tma_frontend_bound]

but expected value range is [tma_backend_bound, tma_backend_bound]

but expected value range is [tma_retiring, tma_retiring]
Relationship rule description: 'Sum of the level 2 children should equal level 1 parent']
Metric validation return with erros. Please check metrics reported with errors.
```
I suspect it is due to two metrics for different CPU types being
enabled. Add a -cputype option to avoid this. The test still fails with:
```
Total Test Count: 115
Passed Test Count: 114
[
Wrong Metric Value Error: The collected value of metric ['tma_l2_hit_latency']
is [117.947088] in workload(s): ['perf bench futex hash -r 2 -s']
but expected value range is [0, 100]]
Metric validation return with errors. Please check metrics reported with errors.
```
which is a reproducible genuine error and likely requires a metric fix.

On continuous testing the perf script output can be empty, or nearly
empty, causing tr/grep to exit and due to "set -e" the test traps and
fails.
Add some empty file handling that sets the test to skip and make grep
and other text rewriting failures non-fatal by adding "|| true".

Since we added --off-cpu-thresh, add tests for when a sample's off-cpu
time is above the threshold, and when it's below the threshold.
Note that the basic test performed in test_offcpu_basic() collects a
direct sample now, since sleep 1 has duration of 1000ms, higher than the
default value of --off-cpu-thresh of 500ms, resulting in a direct
sample.
An example:
$ sudo perf test offcpu
124: perf record offcpu profiling tests : Ok

Super simple test to check that at least we're not segfaulting when

'perf mem/c2c' uses IBS Op PMU on AMD platforms.
IBS Op PMU on Zen5 uarch has added support for Load Latency filtering.
Implement 'perf mem/c2c' --ldlat using IBS Op Load Latency filtering
capability.
Some subtle differences between AMD and other arch:
o --ldlat is disabled by default on AMD
o Supported values are 128 to 2048.

The previous change to support cgroup filters introduced a bug that
pathname can include commas. It confused the lexer to treat an item and
the trailing comma as a single token. And it resulted in a parse error:
$ sudo perf record -e cycles:P --filter 'period > 0, ip > 64' -- true
perf_bpf_filter: Error: Unexpected item: 0,
perf_bpf_filter: syntax error, unexpected BFT_ERROR, expecting BFT_NUM
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
--filter <filter>
event filter
It should get "0" and "," separately.
An easiest fix would be to remove "," from the possible pathname
characters. As it's for cgroup names, probably ok to assume it won't
have commas in the pathname.
I found that the existing BPF filtering test didn't have any complex
filter condition with commas. Let's update the group filter test which
is supposed to test filter combinations like this.

Test case "stat_all_pmu.sh" is not correctly checking 'perf stat' output
due to a poor design. Firstly, having the 'set -e' option with a trap
catching the sigexit causes the shell to exit immediately if 'perf stat' ends
with any non-zero value, which is then caught by the trap reporting an
unexpected signal. This causes events that should be parsed by the if-else
statement to be caught by the trap handler and are reported as errors:
$ perf test -vv "perf all pmu"
Testing i915/actual-frequency/
Unexpected signal in main
Error:
Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.
Secondly, the if-else branches are not exclusive as the checking if the
event is present in the output log covers also the "<not supported>"
events, which should be accepted, and also the "Bad name events", which
should be rejected.
Remove the "set -e" option from the test case, correctly parse the
"perf stat" output log and check its return value. Add the missing
outputs for the 'perf stat' result and also add logs messages to
report the branch that parsed the event for more info.

Add a loop and helper function to avoid repetition, the loop uses
arrays so switch the shell to bash. Add additional topdown group tests
where a topdown event needs to be moved beyond others and the slots
event isn't first in the target group. This replicates issues that
occur on hybrid systems where the other events are for the cpu_atom
PMU. Test with both PMU and software events. Place the slots event
later in the event list.

With LTO builds, although regular builds could also see this as
all the code is in one file, the datasym workload can realize the
buf1.reserved data is never accessed. The compiler moves the
variable to bss and only keeps the data1 and data2 parts as
separate variables. This causes the symbol check to fail in the
test. Make the variable volatile to disable the more aggressive
optimization. Rename the variable to make which buf1 in perf is
being referred to.
Before:
$ perf test -vv "data symbol"

When not running as root and with higher perf event paranoia values
the perf record forked by TPEBS can fail to attach to the process. Skip
the test in these scenarios.
Intel TPEBS test skips on non-Intel CPUs. On Intel CPUs under a
hypervisor the cache-misses event may not be present or precise. Skip
the test under this condition.
Refactor the output code to be placed in a file so that on a signal
the file can be dumped. This was necessary to catch the issue above as
the failing perf record command would fail without output.

The perf trace enum augmentation test specifically targets landlock_
add_rule syscall but IIUC it's an optional and can be opt-out by a
kernel config.
Currently trace_landlock() runs `perf test -w landlock` before the
actual testing to check the availability but it's not enough since the
workload always returns 0. Instead it could check if perf trace output
has 'landlock' string.

The test failed back and forth due to the call chain being heavily
impacted by the libc, which varies across different architectures and
distros.
The libc contains the symbols for "gaih_inet" and "getaddrinfo" in some
cases, but not always. Moreover, these symbols can be either normal
symbols or dynamic symbols, making it difficult to decide the call chain
entries due to the symbols are inconsistent.
To fix the issue, this commit identifies three call chain entries are
always present. These entries are matched by iterating through the
lines in the "perf script" result. The recording attribute max-stack is
set to 4 for the possible maximum call chain depth.

test_adding_kernel
perftool-testsuite_probe fails in test_adding_kernel as below:
Regexp not found: "probe:inode_permission_11"
-- [ FAIL ] -- perf_probe :: test_adding_kernel :: force-adding probes ::
second probe adding (with force) (output regexp parsing)
event syntax error: 'probe:inode_permission_11'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Error: File /sys/kernel/tracing//events/probe/inode_permission_11
not found.
Hint: Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to
enable this feature?.
The test does the following:
1) Adds a probe point first using:
$CMD_PERF probe --add $TEST_PROBE
2) Then tries to add same probe again without —force and expects it to
fail. Next tries to add same probe again with —force. In this case,
perf probe succeeds and adds the probe with a suffix number. Example:
./perf probe --add inode_permission
Added new event:
probe:inode_permission (on inode_permission)
./perf probe --add inode_permission --force
Added new event:
probe:inode_permission_1 (on inode_permission)
./perf probe --add inode_permission --force
Added new event:
probe:inode_permission_2 (on inode_permission)
Each time, suffix is added to existing probe name.
To get the suffix number, test cases uses:
NO_OF_PROBES=`$CMD_PERF probe -l | wc -l`
This will work if there is no other probe existing in the system. If
there are any other probes other than kernel probes or inode_permission,
( example: any probe), "perf probe -l" will include count for other
probes too.
Example, in the system where this failed, already some probes were
default added. So count became 10
./perf probe -l | wc -l
10
So to be specific for "inode_permission", restrict the probe count check
to that probe point alone using:
NO_OF_PROBES=`$CMD_PERF probe -l $TEST_PROBE| wc -l`
Similarly while removing the probe using "probe --del *", (removing all
probes), check uses:
../common/check_all_lines_matched.pl "Removed event: probe:$TEST_PROBE"
But if there are other probes in the system, the log will contain
reference to other existing probe too. Hence change usage of
check_all_lines_matched.pl to check_all_patterns_found.pl This will make
sure expecting string comes in the result

The brstack test runs quite slowly in software models. Part of the reason
is "xargs -n1" is quite inefficient in replacing spaces with newlines.
While that's not noticeable on normal machines, it is on software models.
Use "tr -s ' ' '\n'" instead which can do the same transformation, but is
much faster. For comparison on an M1 Macbook Pro:
$ time seq -s ' ' 10000 | xargs -n1 > /dev/null
real 0m2.729s
user 0m2.009s
sys 0m0.914s
$ time seq -s ' ' 10000 | tr -s ' ' '\n' | grep '.' > /dev/null
real 0m0.002s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.001s
The "grep '.'" is also needed to remove any remaining blank lines.

I found it failed on machines with limited memory because 16M byte
per-cpu buffer is too big. The reason it added the option is not to
miss tracing data. Thus we can limit the data size by reducing the
function call depth instead of increasing the buffer size to handle the
whole data.
As it used the same option in the test_ftrace_trace() and it was able
to find the sleep function, it should work with the profile subcommand.
Get rid of other grep commands which might be affected by the depth
change.

Now that printing metric-value and metric-unit is optional,
print_running_json() shouldn't add the comma in case it becomes
trailing.
Replace all manual JSON comma stuff with a json_out() function that uses
the existing os->first tracking and auto inserts a comma if it's needed.
Update the test to handle that two of the fields can be missing.
This fixes the following test failure on Cortex A57 where the branch
misses metric is missing a required event:
$ perf test -vvv "json output"

Currently, we only have 'perf trace' augmentation tests for enum
arguments. This patch adds tests for more general syscall arguments,
such as struct pointers, strings, and buffers.
These tests utilize the 'perf config' system to configure 'the perf trace'
output, as suggested by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>.
Committer testing:
root@number:~# perf test "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
root@number:~# perf test -v "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
root@number:~# perf test -vv "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 1410451
Checking if vmlinux BTF exists
Testing perf trace's string augmentation
Testing perf trace's buffer augmentation
Testing perf trace's struct augmentation
---- end(0) ----
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
root@number:~#
It still fails sometimes, for instance when tested with:
root@number:~# perf stat --null -r 10 perf test "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : FAILED!

summary information
Currently print_overall_results prints the number of fails in the
summary, example from base_probe tests in testsuite_probe:
## [ FAIL ] ## perf_probe :: test_invalid_options SUMMARY ::
11 failures found
test_invalid_options contains multiple tests and out of that 11 failed.
Sometimes it could happen that it is due to missing dependency in the
build or environment dependency.
Example, perf probe -L requires DWARF enabled. otherwise
it fails as below:
./perf probe -L
Error: switch `L' is not available because NO_DWARF=1
"-L" is tested as one of the option in:
for opt in '-a' '-d' '-L' '-V'; do
<<perf probe test>>
print_results $PERF_EXIT_CODE $CHECK_EXIT_CODE "missing argument
for $opt"
Here -a and -d doesn't require DWARF. Similarly there are few other
tests requiring DWARF.
To hint the user that missing DWARF could be one issue, update
print_overall_results to print a comment string along with summary
hinting the possible cause. Update test_invalid_options.sh and
test_line_semantics.sh to pass the info about DWARF requirement since
these tests failed when perf is built without DWARF.
Use the check for presence of DWARF with "perf check feature" and append
the hint message based on the result.
With the change:
## [ FAIL ] ## perf_probe :: test_invalid_options SUMMARY ::
11 failures found :: Some of the tests need DWARF to run

The 'perf stat' output on aarch64 machines with topdown events wasn't
counted for in the 'perf stat STD output linter' test case. Add the
topdown metric to the skip_metric list as it is done for topdown events
on other systems.
The Topdown events are also disabled on aarch64 KVM guests because the
value of caps/slots is set to 0 due to the part of the system register
being a stub.
This prevents the metric for the topdown events from being computed,
leaving the 'perf stat' topdown metric without any value at all.
Add the "TopdownL1" to the skip_metric list as well to handle this
possibility.
Before aarch64:
100: perf stat STD output linter:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 403305
Checking STD output: no args Unknown event name in TopdownL1 # 4.3 percent of slots slots_lost_misspeculation_fraction
---- end(-1) ----
100: perf stat STD output linter : FAILED!
Before aarch64 KVM:
100: perf stat STD output linter:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 404671
Checking STD output: no args Unknown event name in TopdownL1
---- end(-1) ----
100: perf stat STD output linter : FAILED!
After:
100: perf stat STD output linter:

On s390 the perf test case ftrace sometimes fails as follows:
# ./perf test ftrace
79: perf ftrace tests : FAILED!
#
The failure depends on the kernel .config file. Some configurations
always work fine, some do not. The ftrace profile test mostly fails,
because the ring buffer was not large enough, and some lines
(especially the interesting ones with nanosleep in it) where dropped.
To achieve success for all tested kernel configurations, enlarge
the buffer to store the traces completely without wrapping.
The default buffer size is too small for all kernel configurations.
Set the buffer size of for the ftrace profile test to 16 MB.
Output after:
# ./perf test ftrace
79: perf ftrace tests : Ok
