From 94bb0a6bdb142539f854f19eefdeeb2e58f116cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Clark Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2022 13:19:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf test: Fix skipping branch stack sampling test [ Upstream commit 20ebc4a649b82e6ad892684c76ea1e8dd786d336 ] Commit f4a2aade6809c657 ("perf tests powerpc: Fix branch stack sampling test to include sanity check for branch filter") added a skip if certain branch options aren't available. But the change added both -b (--branch-any) and --branch-filter options at the same time, which will always result in a failure on any platform because the arguments can't be used together. Fix this by removing -b (--branch-any) and leaving --branch-filter which already specifies 'any'. Also add warning messages to the test and perf tool. Output on x86 before this fix: $ sudo ./perf test branch 108: Check branch stack sampling : Skip After: $ sudo ./perf test branch 108: Check branch stack sampling : Ok Fixes: f4a2aade6809c657 ("perf tests powerpc: Fix branch stack sampling test to include sanity check for branch filter") Signed-off-by: James Clark Tested-by: Athira Jajeev Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Anshuman.Khandual@arm.com Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kajol Jain Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221028121913.745307-1-james.clark@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin --- tools/perf/tests/shell/test_brstack.sh | 5 ++++- tools/perf/util/parse-branch-options.c | 4 +++- 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_brstack.sh b/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_brstack.sh index ec801cffae6bc..d7ff5c4b4da4c 100755 --- a/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_brstack.sh +++ b/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_brstack.sh @@ -13,7 +13,10 @@ fi # skip the test if the hardware doesn't support branch stack sampling # and if the architecture doesn't support filter types: any,save_type,u -perf record -b -o- -B --branch-filter any,save_type,u true > /dev/null 2>&1 || exit 2 +if ! perf record -o- --no-buildid --branch-filter any,save_type,u -- true > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then + echo "skip: system doesn't support filter types: any,save_type,u" + exit 2 +fi TMPDIR=$(mktemp -d /tmp/__perf_test.program.XXXXX) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/parse-branch-options.c b/tools/perf/util/parse-branch-options.c index bb4aa88c50a82..35264b5684d09 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/parse-branch-options.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/parse-branch-options.c @@ -101,8 +101,10 @@ parse_branch_stack(const struct option *opt, const char *str, int unset) /* * cannot set it twice, -b + --branch-filter for instance */ - if (*mode) + if (*mode) { + pr_err("Error: Can't use --branch-any (-b) with --branch-filter (-j).\n"); return -1; + } return parse_branch_str(str, mode); }
