perf tests ARM: Disable breakpoint tests 32-bit

2019-01-26T08:20:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit 24f967337f6d6bce931425769c0f5ff5cf2d212e ]

The breakpoint tests on the ARM 32-bit kernel are broken in several
ways.

The breakpoint length requested does not necessarily match whether the
function address has the Thumb bit (bit 0) set or not, and this does
matter to the ARM kernel hw_breakpoint infrastructure. See [1] for
background.

[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/15/205

As Will indicated, the overflow handling would require single-stepping
which is not supported at the moment. Just disable those tests for the
ARM 32-bit platforms and update the comment above to explain these
limitations.

perf tools: Fix crash on synthesizing the unit

2018-11-12T16:37:49+00:00

Adam reported a record command crash for simple session like:

  $ perf record -e cpu-clock ls

with following backtrace:

  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
  3543            ev = event_update_event__new(size + 1, PERF_EVENT_UPDATE__UNIT, evsel->id[0]);
  (gdb) bt
  #0  perf_event__synthesize_event_update_unit
  #1  0x000000000051e469 in perf_event__synthesize_extra_attr
  #2  0x00000000004445cb in record__synthesize
  #3  0x0000000000444bc5 in __cmd_record
  ...

We synthesize an update event that needs to touch the evsel id array,
which is not defined at that time. Fix this by forcing the id allocation
for events with their unit defined.

Reflecting possible read_format ID bit in the attr tests.

perf tools: Do not zero sample_id_all for group members

2018-11-06T11:29:56+00:00

Andi reported following malfunction:

  # perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}:S' -a sleep 1
  # perf script
  non matching sample_id_all

That's because we disable sample_id_all bit for non-sampling group
members. We can't do that, because it needs to be the same over the
whole event list. This patch keeps it untouched again.

perf test: S390 does not support watchpoints in test 22

2018-10-08T17:23:44+00:00

S390 does not support the perf_event_open system call for
attribute type PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT. This results in test
failure for test 22:

  [root@s8360046 perf]# ./perf test 22
  22: Watchpoint                                :
  22.1: Read Only Watchpoint                    : FAILED!
  22.2: Write Only Watchpoint                   : FAILED!
  22.3: Read / Write Watchpoint                 : FAILED!
  22.4: Modify Watchpoint                       : FAILED!
  [root@s8360046 perf]#

Add s390 support to avoid these tests being executed on
s390 platform:

  [root@s8360046 perf]# ./perf test 22
  [root@s8360046 perf]# ./perf test -v 22
  22: Watchpoint                                : Disabled

tools lib traceevent, perf tools: Rename enum format_flags to enum tep_format_flags

2018-09-19T20:14:13+00:00

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, variables, data
structures and functions require a unique prefix to prevent name space
conflicts. That prefix will be "tep_". This renames enum format_flags
to enum tep_format_flags and adds prefix TEP_ to all of its members.

perf test: Add watchpoint test

2018-09-18T20:21:13+00:00

We don't have a 'perf test' entry available to test the watchpoint
functionality.

Add a simple set of tests:

 - Read only watchpoint
 - Write only watchpoint
 - Read / Write watchpoint
 - Runtime watchpoint modification

Ex.: on powerpc:

  $ sudo perf test 22
  22: Watchpoint                                            :
  22.1: Read Only Watchpoint                                : Ok
  22.2: Write Only Watchpoint                               : Ok
  22.3: Read / Write Watchpoint                             : Ok
  22.4: Modify Watchpoint                                   : Ok

perf tests: Fix record+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh without ping's debuginfo

2018-09-05T13:47:56+00:00

When we don't have the iputils-debuginfo package installed, i.e. when we
don't have the DWARF information needed to resolve ping's samples, we
end up failing this 'perf test' entry:

  # perf test ping
  62: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       : Ok
  # rpm -e iputils-debuginfo
  # perf test ping
  62: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       : FAILED!
  #

Fix it to accept "[unknown]" where the symbol + offset, when resolved,
is expected.

I think this will fail in the other arches as well, but since I can't
test now, I'm leaving s390x and ppc cases as-is.

perf tools: Add compression id into 'struct kmod_path'

2018-08-20T11:54:59+00:00

Store a decompression ID in 'struct kmod_path', so it can be later
stored in 'struct dso'.

Switch 'struct kmod_path's 'comp' from 'bool' to 'int' to return the
compressions array index. Add 0 index item into compressions array, so
that the comp usage stays as it was: 0 - no compression, != 0
compression index.

Update the kmod_path tests.

Committer notes:

Use a designated initializer + terminating comma, e.g. { .fmt = NULL, }, to fix
the build in several distros:
