Testcase stat+json_output.sh fails in powerpc:
86: perf stat JSON output linter : FAILED!
The testcase "stat+json_output.sh" verifies perf stat JSON output. The
test covers aggregation modes like per-socket, per-core, per-die, -A
(no_aggr mode) along with few other tests. It counts expected fields for
various commands. For example say -A (i.e, AGGR_NONE mode), expects 7
fields in the output having "CPU" as first field. Same way, for
per-socket, it expects the first field in result to point to socket id.
The testcases compares the result with expected count.
The values for socket, die, core and cpu are fetched from topology
directory:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology.
For example, socket value is fetched from "physical_package_id" file of
topology directory. (cpu__get_topology_int() in util/cpumap.c)
If a platform fails to fetch the topology information, values will be
set to -1. For example, incase of pSeries platform of powerpc, value for
"physical_package_id" is restricted and not exposed. So, -1 will be
assigned.
Perf code has a checks for valid cpu id in "aggr_printout"
(stat-display.c), which displays the fields. So, in cases where topology
values not exposed, first field of the output displaying will be empty.
This cause the testcase to fail, as it counts number of fields in the
output.
Incase of -A (AGGR_NONE mode,), testcase expects 7 fields in the output,
becos of -1 value obtained from topology files for some, only 6 fields
are printed. Hence a testcase failure reported due to mismatch in number
of fields in the output.
Patch here adds a sanity check in the testcase for topology. Check will
help to skip the test if -1 value found.

Add tests:
Test with MTC and TSC disabled
Test with branches disabled
Test with/without CYC
Test recording with sample mode
Test with kernel trace
Test virtual LBR
Test power events
Test with TNT packets disabled
Test with event_trace
These tests mostly check that perf record works with the corresponding
Intel PT config terms, sometimes also checking that certain packets do or
do not appear in the resulting trace as appropriate.
The "Test virtual LBR" is slightly trickier, using a Python script to
check that branch stacks are actually synthesized.

This test commonly fails on Arm Juno because the instruction interval
is large enough to miss generating any samples for Perf in system-wide
mode.
Fix this by lowering the interval until a comfortable number of Perf
instructions are generated. The test is still quick to run because only
a small amount of trace is gathered.

This adds the initial build infrastructure (makefiles maintainers
information) for adding follow-on tests for CoreSight.
Committer notes:
Remove the installation of tests/shell/coresight/*.sh, as there are no
files there yet and thus, at this point, make install fails.
Use $(QUIET_CLEAN) to avoid having extraneous output in the 'make clean'
output.
Also use @$(MAKE) in tools/perf/tests/shell/coresight/Makefile as $(Q)
is not turning into @ when V=1 isn't used, i.e. in the default case it
is not being quiet.
The >/dev/null in the all for tools/perf/tests/shell/coresight/Makefile
is to avoid this:
make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
DESCEND plugins
GEN /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so

INSTALL trace_plugins
On !arm64 where nothing is done on the main target for
tools/perf/tests/shell/coresight/*/Makefile.

The test is designed with a data structure with 64-byte alignment, it
has two fields "data1" and "data2", and other fields are reserved.
Using the "perf mem" command, we can record and report memory samples
for a self-contained workload with 1 second duration. If no samples are
obtained for the data structure "buf1", it reports failure; and by
checking the offset in structure "buf1", if the memory samples aren't
for the "data1" and "data2" fields, it means wrong data symbol parsing
and returns failure.

When tracing the kernel with Intel PT, text_poke events are recorded
per-cpu. In per-thread mode that results in a mixture of per-thread and
per-cpu events and mmaps. Check that happens correctly.
The debug output from perf record -vvv is recorded and then awk used to
process the debug messages that indicate what file descriptors were
opened and whether they were mmapped or set-output.
