perf test record user-regs: Fix mask for vg register

2024-01-25T23:35:51+00:00

[ Upstream commit 28b01743ca752cea5ab182297d8b912b22f2a2d1 ]

The 'vg' register for arm64 shows up in --user_regs as available when
masking the variable AT_HWCAP with 1 << 22 returns '1' as done in
perf_regs.c.

However, in subtests for support of SVE, the check for the 'vg' register
is done by masking the variable AT_HWCAP with the value 0x200000 which
is equals to 1 << 21 instead of 1 << 22.

This results in inconsistencies on certain systems where the test
expects that the 'vg' register is not operational when it is, and
vice-versa.

During the testing on a machine that the test expected not to have the
'vg' register available, 'perf record' with the option --user-regs
showed records for the 'vg' register together with all of the others,
which means that the mask for the subtest of perf_event_attr is off by
one.

Change the value of the mask from 0x200000 to 0x400000 to correct it.

perf test: Remove atomics from test_loop to avoid test failures

2024-01-25T23:35:51+00:00

[ 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.

perf parse-events: Fixes relating to no_value terms

2023-09-02T11:12:15+00:00

A term may have no value in which case it is assumed to have a value
of 1. It doesn't just apply to alias/event terms so change the
parse_events_term__to_strbuf assert.

Commit 99e7138eb7897aa0 ("perf tools: Fail on using multiple bits long
terms without value") made it so that no_value terms could only be for a
single bit. Prior to commit 64199ae4b8a3 ("perf parse-events: Fix
propagation of term's no_value when cloning") this missed a test case
where config1 had no_value.

perf metric: Add #num_cpus_online literal

2023-08-31T02:03:03+00:00

Returns the number of CPUs online, unlike #num_cpus that returns the
number present.

Add a test of the property.

This will be used in future Intel metrics.

perf jevents: Use "default_core" for events with no Unit

2023-08-29T17:16:15+00:00

The JSON Unit field encodes the name of the PMU to match the events
to. When no name is given it has meant the "cpu" core PMU except for
tests.

On ARM, Intel hybrid and s390 the core PMU is named differently which
means that using "cpu" for this case causes the events not to get
matched to the PMU.

Introduce a new "default_core" string for this case and in the
pmu__name_match force all core PMUs to match this name.

perf test stat_bpf_counters_cgrp: Enhance perf stat cgroup BPF counter test

2023-08-29T17:16:15+00:00

It has system-wide test and cpu-list test but the cpu-list test fails
sometimes.  It runs sleep command on CPU1 and measure both user.slice
and system.slice cgroups by default (on systemd-based systems).

But if the system was idle enough, sometime the system.slice gets no
count and it makes the test failing.  Maybe that's because it only looks
at the CPU1, let's add CPU0 to increase the chance it finds some tasks.

perf test shell stat_bpf_counters: Fix test on Intel

2023-08-29T17:16:14+00:00

As of now, bpf counters (bperf) don't support event groups.  But the
default perf stat includes topdown metrics if supported (on recent Intel
machines) which require groups.  That makes perf stat exiting.

  $ sudo perf stat --bpf-counter true
  bpf managed perf events do not yet support groups.

Actually the test explicitly uses cycles event only, but it missed to
pass the option when it checks the availability of the command.

perf test shell record_bpf_filter: Skip 6.2 kernel

2023-08-29T17:16:14+00:00

The BPF sample filtering requires two kernel changes below:

 * bpf_cast_to_kernel_ctx() kfunc (added in v6.2)

 * setting perf_sample_data->sample_flags (finished in v6.3)

The perf tools can check bpf_cast_to_kernel_ctx() easily so it can
refuse BPF filters on those old kernels (v6.1 and earlier).

But checking sample_flags appears to be difficult so current code won't
work on v6.2 kernel.  That's unfortunate but I don't know what's the
correct way to handle it.

For now, let's skip v6.2 kernels explicitly (if failed) in the test.
