This test checks reading from backward ring buffer.
Test result:
# ~/perf test 'ring buffer'
45: Test backward reading from ring buffer : Ok
The test case is a while loop which calls prctl(PR_SET_NAME) multiple
times. Each prctl should issue 2 events: one PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE, one
PERF_RECORD_COMM.
The first round creates a relative large ring buffer (256 pages). It can
afford all events. Read from it and check the count of each type of
events.
The second round creates a small ring buffer (1 page) and makes it
overwritable. Check the correctness of the buffer.

So we need to trow away just stdout, leaving stderr to be caught by
the build tests infrastructure, so that we can see what went wrong
when the tarpkg build test fails:
$ make -C tools/perf build-test
make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
- tarpkg: ./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
tests/make:302: recipe for target 'tarpkg' failed
make[1]: *** [tarpkg] Error 2
Makefile:102: recipe for target 'build-test' failed
make: *** [build-test] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
$ cat tools/perf/tarpkg
./tests/perf-targz-src-pkg .
PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec
PERF_VERSION = 4.5.g05f5ec

$
So the test flow is:
1. Run: 'make -C tools/perf build-test'
2. One of its tests failed, in this case, the 'tarpkg' one
3. Look at what went wrong, by looking at the output of that test, in
tools/perf/tarpkg
Admittedly, this should be shortcircuited to showing what went wrong directly
from the 'make build-test' step, but lets first fix this tarpkg one and the
problem it spotted, which should be fixed by adding some extra file to the
tools/perf/MANIFEST so that detached tarballs continue being self contained and
build successfully.

Using 4 kHz is not necessary and sometimes is more than what was
auto-tuned:
# dmesg | grep max_sample_rate | tail -2
[ 2499.144373] perf interrupt took too long (2501 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000
[ 3592.413606] perf interrupt took too long (5069 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000
Simulating a auto-tune of 2000 we make the test fail, as reported
by Steven Noonan for one of his machines, so reduce it to 500 HZ,
it is enough to get a good number of samples for this test:
# perf test -v 21 2>&1 | grep '^Reading object code for memory address' | tee /tmp/out | tail -5
Reading object code for memory address: 0x479f40
Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d
Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d

Reading object code for memory address: 0xffffffff813b2f23
[root@jouet ~]# wc -l /tmp/out
40 /tmp/out
[root@jouet ~]#
For systems that auto-tune below that, the previous patches will tell the
user what is happening so that he may either ignore the result of this test or
bump /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

remove that 'cd . &&', move the DESTDIR= and O= to the end, as they don't
convey that much information besides the fact that they are being set to some
random directory just for this build, move the meat, i.e. the meaningful
feature disabling bits to the start, etc.

To prevent the feature check tests to run repeately, one time per
'tests/make' target/test, this patch utilizes the previously introduced
'feature-dump' make target and FEATURES_DUMP variable, making sure that
the feature checkers run only once when doing build-test for normal test
cases.
However, since standard users doesn't reuse features dump result, we'd
better give an option to check their behaviors. The above feature
should be used to make build-test faster only. Only utilize it for
build-test.

There's a bug in LLVM that it can generate unneeded relocation
information. See [1] and [2]. Libbpf should check the target section of
a relocation symbol.
This patch adds a testcase which references a global variable (BPF
doesn't support global variables). Before fixing libbpf, the new test
case can be loaded into kernel, the global variable acts like the first
map. It is incorrect.

There are cases where looking at just the next and prev entries is not
enough, like with:

Unlike tools/perf/Makefile, tools/perf/Makefile.perf obey 'O' option
when it is passed through cmdline only, due to code in
tools/scripts/Makefile.include:
ifneq ($(O),)
ifeq ($(origin O), command line)
...
ABSOLUTE_O := $(shell cd $(O) ; pwd)
OUTPUT := $(ABSOLUTE_O)/$(if $(subdir),$(subdir)/)
endif
endif
This patch passes 'O' to Makefile.perf through cmdline explicitly
to make it follow O variable during build-test.
'make clean' should have identical 'O' option with 'make'. If not,
config-clean may error.

'make build-test' is painful because of time consuming. In a full test,
all test cases are built twice with tools/perf/Makefile and
tools/perf/Makefile.perf. 'Makefile' automatically computes parallel
options for make, but 'Makefile.perf' not, so all test cases is built
with one job. It is very slow.
This patch adds '-j' options to Makefile.perf testing. It computes
parallel building options like what tools/perf/Makefile does, and pass
'-j' option to Makefile.perf test.

Commit 71d6de64fe ("perf test: Fix hist testcases when kptr_restrict is on")
solves a double free problem when 'perf test hist' calling
setup_fake_machine(). However, the result is still incorrect. For example:
$ ./perf test -v 'filtering hist entries'
25: Test filtering hist entries :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 4186
Cannot create kernel maps
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Test filtering hist entries: Ok
In this case the body of this test is not get executed at all, but the
result is 'Ok'.
Actually, in setup_fake_machine() there's no need to create real kernel
maps. What we want are the fake maps. This patch removes the
machine__create_kernel_maps() in setup_fake_machine(), so it won't be
affected by kptr_restrict setting.
Test result:
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
1
$ ~/perf test -v hist
15: Test matching and linking multiple hists :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 24031
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Test matching and linking multiple hists: Ok

We were asking for a 4kHz sample_freq, making the test fail needlessly
when the system reduced /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
below that.
Before:
# perf test -vv dummy
23: Test using a dummy software event to keep tracking :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 32421
------------------------------------------------------------
perf_event_attr:
type 1
size 112
config 0x9
{ sample_period, sample_freq } 4000
sample_type IP|TID|ID|PERIOD
<SNIP>
sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22
Unable to open dummy and cycles event
test child finished with -2
---- end ----
Test using a dummy software event to keep tracking: Skip
#
[root@zoo ~]# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
1000
After:
[root@zoo ~]# perf test dummy
23: Test using a dummy software event to keep tracking : Ok
