perf tests: Fix *probe_vfs_getname.sh test failures

2021-08-30T13:06:43+00:00

The commit 4d6101f5fd5d9960 ("perf probe: Clarify error message about
not finding kernel modules debuginfo") changed the error message "Failed
to find the path for kernel" to "Failed to find the path for the
kernel".

Update the regex so that the tests still skip rather than fail when
kernel debug symbols aren't present.

perf test: Do not compare overheads in the zstd comp test

2021-08-13T13:45:36+00:00

The overhead can vary on each run so it'd make the test failed
sometimes.  Also order of hist entry can change.

Use perf report -F option to omit the overhead field and sort the
result alphabetically.

perf test: Fix non-bash issue with stat bpf counters

$(( .. )) is a bash feature but the test's interpreter is !/bin/sh,

perf test: Make stat bpf counters test more robust

2021-06-18T16:50:05+00:00

If the test is run on a hypervisor then the cycles event may not be
counted, skip the test in this situation. Fail the test if cycles are
not counted in the subsequent bpf counter run.

perf tests: Skip 'perf stat metrics (shadow stat) test' for hybrid

2021-04-29T13:31:00+00:00

Currently we don't support shadow stat for hybrid.

  root@ssp-pwrt-002:~# ./perf stat -e cycles,instructions -a -- sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

      12,883,109,591      cpu_core/cycles/
       6,405,163,221      cpu_atom/cycles/
         555,553,778      cpu_core/instructions/
         841,158,734      cpu_atom/instructions/

         1.002644773 seconds time elapsed

Now there is no shadow stat 'insn per cycle' reported. We will support
it later and now just skip the 'perf stat metrics (shadow stat) test'.

perf test: Change to use bash for daemon test

2021-03-26T11:56:57+00:00

When executing the daemon test on Arm64 and x86 with Debian (Buster)
distro, both skip the test case with the log:

  # ./perf test -v 76
  76: daemon operations                                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 11687
  test daemon list
  trap: SIGINT: bad trap
  ./tests/shell/daemon.sh: 173: local: cpu-clock: bad variable name
  test child finished with -2
  ---- end ----
  daemon operations: Skip

So the error happens for the variable expansion when use local variable
in the shell script.  Since Debian Buster uses dash but not bash as
non-interactive shell, when execute the daemon testing, it hits a known
issue for dash which was reported [1].

To resolve this issue, one option is to add double quotes for all local
variables assignment, so need to change the code from:

  local line=`perf daemon --config ${config} -x: | head -2 | tail -1`

  ... to:

  local line="`perf daemon --config ${config} -x: | head -2 | tail -1`"

But the testing script has bunch of local variables, this leads to big
changes for whole script.

On the other hand, the testing script asks to use the "local" feature
which is bash-specific, so this patch explicitly uses "#!/bin/bash" to
ensure running the script with bash.

After:

  # ./perf test -v 76
  76: daemon operations                                               :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 11329
  test daemon list
  test daemon reconfig
  test daemon stop
  test daemon signal
  signal 12 sent to session 'test [11596]'
  signal 12 sent to session 'test [11596]'
  test daemon ping
  test daemon lock
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  daemon operations: Ok
