In debian/ubuntu, libc.so is located at a different place,
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-2.23.so, so it outputs like this when testing:
PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes

Fix up the libc path to make sure this test works in more OSes.
Committer testing:
When this test fails one can use 'perf test -v', i.e. in verbose mode, where
it'll show the expected backtrace, so, after applying this test:
On Fedora 26:

The proc files which is sorted with alphabetical order are evenly
assigned to several synthesize threads to be processed in parallel.
For 'perf top', the threads number hard code to online CPU number. The
following patch will introduce an option to set it.
For other perf tools, the thread number is 1. Because the process
function is not ready for multithreading, e.g.
process_synthesized_event.
This patch series only support event synthesize multithreading for 'perf
top'. For other tools, it can be done separately later.
With multithread applied, the total processing time can get up to 1.56x
speedup on Knights Mill for 'perf top'.
For specific single event processing, the processing time could increase
because of the lock contention. So proc_map_timeout may need to be
increased. Otherwise some proc maps will be truncated.
Based on my test, increasing the proc_map_timeout has small impact
on the total processing time. The total processing time still get 1.49x
speedup on Knights Mill after increasing the proc_map_timeout.
The patch itself doesn't increase the proc_map_timeout.
Doesn't need to implement multithreading for per task monitoring,
perf_event__synthesize_thread_map. It doesn't have performance issue.

Setup struct perf_event_attr: Ok
The reason for the wrong error reporting is the return value of the
system() library call. It is called in run_dir() file tests/attr.c and
returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00.
This value is given as parameter to the exit() function which can only
handle values 0-0xff.
The child process terminates with exit value of 0 and the parent does
not detect any error.
This patch corrects the error reporting and prints the correct test
result.

Commit d78ada4a76 ("perf tests attr: Do not store failed events") does
not create an event file in the /tmp directory when the
perf_open_event() system call failed.
This can lead to a situation where not /tmp/event-xx-yy-zz result file
exists at all (for example on a s390x virtual machine environment) where
no CPUMF hardware is available.
The following command then fails with a python call back chain instead
of printing failure:

When cross compiling perf and I want to link against a self-compiled
libunwind, I usually make the custom path where the libunwind headers
exist visible by adding the libunwind prefix to the include path when
compiling perf, i.e.:
~~~~~
$ ls $HOME/projects/compiled/other/include/
libunwind-coredump.h libunwind.h libunwind-x86_64.h
libunwind-common.h libunwind-dynamic.h libunwind-ptrace.h
unwind.h
$ make EXTRA_CFLAGS="-I$HOME/projects/compiled/other/include/
~~~~~~
Note the `unwind.h` header from libunwind which leads to compile
errors when compiling tests/dwarf-unwind.c, since it shadows perf's
util/unwind.h:
~~~~~
tests/dwarf-unwind.c:41:32: error: ‘struct unwind_entry’ declared inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration [-Werror]

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

tests/dwarf-unwind.c:92:8: error: nested extern declaration of ‘unwind__get_entries’ [-Werror=nested-externs]

Fix this compile error by specificing an explicit include of perf's
unwind.h in the util folder.

Add some simple tests to perf test to test data source printing.
v2: Make the tests actually checked for the correct name of Forward
v3: Adjust to new encoding
Committer notes:
Avoid the in place declaration to make this build with older compilers,
for instance, in Debian 7 we get:
tests/mem.c: In function 'test__mem':
tests/mem.c:30:5: error: missing initializer [-Werror=missing-field-initializers]
tests/mem.c:30:5: error: (near initialization for '(anonymous).<anonymous>.mem_snoop') [-Werror=missing-field-initializers]
So just zero a struct, then go on building the unions as needed,
reusing settings from the previous test, i.e. local -> remote, etc.

Enhance the expression parser for more complex metric formulas.
- Support python style IF ELSE operators
- Add an #SMT_On magic variable for formulas that depend on the SMT
status.
Example: 4 *( CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD_ANY / 2 ) if #SMT_on else cycles
- Support MIN/MAX operations
Example: min(1 , IDQ.MITE_UOPS / ( UPI * 16 * ( ICACHE.HIT + ICACHE.MISSES ) / 4.0 ) )
This is useful to fix up problems caused by multiplexing.
- Support | & ^ operators
- Minor cleanups and fixes
- Support an \ escape for operators. This allows to specify event names
like c2-residency
- Support @ as an alternative for / to be able to specify pmus without
conflicts with operators (like msr/tsc/ as msr@tsc@)
Example: (cstate_core@c3\\-residency@ / msr@tsc@) * 100

The event is allocated with cpus == 1, but freed with cpus == real number
When the evsel close function walks the file descriptors it exceeds the
fd xyarray boundaries and reads random memory.
v2:
Now that xyarrays save their original dimensions we can use these to
iterate the two dimensional fd arrays. Fix some users (close, ioctl) in
evsel.c to use these fields directly. This allows simplifying the code
and dropping quite a few function arguments. Adjust all callers by
removing the unneeded arguments.
The actual perf event reading still uses the original values from the
evsel list.

I investigated perf test BPF for s390x and have a question regarding
the 38.3 subtest (bpf-prologue test) which fails on s390x.
When I turn on trace_printk in tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
I see this output in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace:

There are 3 parameters the eBPF program tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
accesses: f_mode (member of struct file at offset 140) offset and orig. They
are parameters of the lseek() system call triggered in this test case in
function llseek_loop().
What is really strange is the value of f_mode. It is an 8 byte value, whereas
in the probe event it is defined as a 4 byte value. The lower 4 bytes are all
zero and do not belong to member f_mode. The correct value should be 2001d for
read-only and 6001f for read-write open mode.
Here is the output of the 'perf test -vv bpf' trace:

Add a library function that checks if 'perf probe' is built into the
tool being tested, skipping tests that need it.
Testing it on a system after removing the library needed to build
'probe' as a perf subcommand:
# perf test ping vfs_getname
59: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
60: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Skip
61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Skip
62: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
# perf probe
perf: 'probe' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
#
Now reinstalling elfutils-libelf-devel on this Fedora 26 system to
rebuild perf and then retest this:
# perf test ping vfs_getname
60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok
61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Ok
62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok

Installs a probe on libc's inet_pton function, that will use uprobes,
then use 'perf trace' on a ping to localhost asking for just one packet
with the a backtrace 3 levels deep, check that it is what we expect.
This needs no debuginfo package, all is done using the libc ELF symtab
and the CFI info in the binaries.
Testing it:
# perf test ping
61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Ok
In verbose mode:
# perf test -v ping

Uses the 'perf test shell' library to add probe:vfs_getname to the
system then use it with 'perf trace' using 'touch' to write to a temp
file, then checks that that was captured by the vfs_getname was used by
'perf trace', that already handles "probe:vfs_getname" if present, and
used in the "open" syscall "filename" argument beautifier.
Testing it:
# perf test "trace + vfs_getname"
61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
#
# perf test -v "trace + vfs_getname"
61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname:

To allow testing by directly using perf tools in scripts, checking that
the effects on the system are the ones expected and that the output
produced is as well the desired one.
For instance, adding a probe at a well known location with 'perf probe',
then checking that the results from using that probe to record are the
desired ones, etc.
The next csets will introduce tests using this new testing
infrastructure.
The scripts should return 0 for Ok, 1 for FAIL and 2 for SKIP.

Fixes: 8e5dc84835 ("perf test: Add a test case for SDT event")
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
This patch adds platform dependency into the test case 15
(perf_event_attr). It is based on a suggestion from Jiri Olsa.
Add a new optional attribute named 'arch' in the [config] section of the
test case file. It is a comma separated list of architecture names this
test can be executed on. For example:
arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
If this attribute is missing the test is executed on any platform. This
does not break existing behavior.
The values listed for this attribute should be identical to uname -m
output.
If the list starts with an exclamation mark (!) the comparison is
inverted, for example for
arch = !s390x,ppc
the test is not executed on s390x or ppc platforms. The exclamation
mark must be at the beginnning of the list.
Here is an example debug output:
[root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C2
arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
[root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
-d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1
provides the following output:
running './tests/attr//test-stat-C1'
test limitation 'x86_64,alpha,ppc' <--- new
loading expected events
Event event:base-stat
fd = 1
group_fd = -1
.....
Here is the output when a test is skipped:
[root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C1
arch = !s390x
[root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
-d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1
provides the following output:
test limitation '!s390x' <--- new
skipped [s390x] './tests/attr//test-stat-C1' <--- new
The test is skipped with return code 0.
