2025-11-13perf test: Fix lock contention testRavi Bangoria
Couple of independent fixes: 1. Wire in SIGSEGV handler that terminates the test with a failure code. 2. Use "--lock-cgroup" instead of "-g"; "-g" was proposed but never merged. See commit 4d1792d0a2564caf ("perf lock contention: Add --lock-cgroup option") 3. Call cleanup() on every normal exit so trap_cleanup() doesn't mistake it for an unexpected signal and emit a false-negative "Unexpected signal in main" message.

2025-06-30perf test annotate: Use --percent-limit rather than head to reduce outputIan Rogers
The annotate test was sped up by Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.ibm.com> in commit 658a8805cb60 ("perf test: Speed up test case 70 annotate basic tests") by reducing the annotate output using head. This causes flakes on hybrid machines where the first event dumped may not have the samples for the test within it. Rather than reduce the output using `head` switch to `--percent-limit 10` which will stop annotate dumping functions that have an overhead of less than 10%, the noploop program should be using more. Add the missing objdump option for the pipe mode version of the objdump with a command test.

2025-06-26perf test: Change all remaining #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bashJames Clark
There are 43 instances of posix shell tests and 35 instances of bash. To give us a single consistent language for testing in, replace all #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash. Common sources that are included in both different shells will now work as expected. And we no longer have to fix up bashisms that appear to work when someone's system has sh symlinked to bash, but don't work on other systems that have both shells installed. Although we could have chosen sh, it's not backwards compatible so it wouldn't be possible to bulk convert without re-writing the existing bash tests. Choosing bash also gives us some nicer features including 'local' variable definitions and regexes in if statements that are already widely used in the tests. It's not expected that there are any users with only sh available due to the large number of bash tests that exist.

2025-06-09perf test trace: Change the regex pattern in the struct testHoward Chu
Ian mentioned a reliably occurred failure in the trace_btf_general test where he obtained trace output of: sleep/279619 clock_nanosleep(0, 0, {1,1,}, 0x7ffcd47b6450) = 0 But the regex pattern used for verification is "^sleep/[0-9]+ clock_nanosleep\(0, 0, \{1,\}, ..." This lead to a mismatch. The reason is, different sleep commands use different timespec data to call clock_nanosleep, on my machine, the value of tv_nsec is 0. ~~~ $ sudo /tmp/perf/perf trace -e clock_nanosleep -- sleep 1 0.000 (1000.196 ms): sleep/54261 clock_nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 1, .tv_nsec: 0 }, rmtp: 0x7ffe13529550) = 0 ~~~ While Ian had this trace log: ~~~ $ sudo /tmp/perf/perf trace -e clock_nanosleep -- sleep 1 0.000 (1000.208 ms): sleep/1710732 clock_nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 1, .tv_nsec: 1 }, rmtp: 0x7ffc091f4090) = 0 ~~~ Because sleep's behavior of setting 'tv_nsec' is not certain, and tv_sec is most definitely 1, this patch relaxes the key regex pattern to '\{1,.*\}' for a better chance of matching.

2025-06-09perf test trace: Use --sort-events in BTF general testsHoward Chu
Without the '--sort-events' flag, perf trace doesn't receive and process events based on their arrival time, thus PERF_RECORD_COMM event that assigns the correct comm to a PID, may be delivered and processed after regular samples, causing trace outputs not having a 'comm', e.g. 'mv', instead, having the default PID placeholder, e.g. ':14514'. Hopefully this answers Namhyung's question in [1]. You can simply justify the statement with this diff: [2]. Now, simply run this command multiple times: $ touch /tmp/file1 && sudo /tmp/perf trace -e renameat* -- mv /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 && rm -f /tmp/file2 And you should see two types of results: $ touch /tmp/file1 && sudo /tmp/perf trace -e renameat* -- mv /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 && rm -f /tmp/file2 [debug] deliver [debug] machine__process_comm_event [OVERRIDE] old :1221169 new mv str mv [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver 0.000 ( 0.013 ms): mv/1221169 renameat2(olddfd: CWD, oldname: "/tmp/file1", newdfd: CWD, newname: "/tmp/file2", flags: NOREPLACE) = 0 [debug] deliver $ touch /tmp/file1 && sudo /tmp/perf trace -e renameat* -- mv /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 && rm -f /tmp/file2 [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver 0.000 ( 0.014 ms): :1221398/1221398 renameat2(olddfd: CWD, oldname: "/tmp/file1", newdfd: CWD, newname: "/tmp/file2", flags: NOREPLACE) = 0 [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] machine__process_comm_event [OVERRIDE] old :1221398 new mv str mv [debug] deliver [debug] deliver [debug] deliver Anyway, use --sort-events in BTF general tests to avoid :PID, a comm is preferred.

2025-05-22perf tests trace_summary.sh: Run in exclusive modeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
And it is being successfull only when running alone, probably because there are some tests that add the vfs_getname probe that gets used by 'perf trace' and alter how it does syscall arg pathname resolution. This should be removed or made a fallback to the preferred BPF mode of getting syscall parameters, but till then, run this in exclusive mode. For reference, here are some of the tests that run close to this one: 127: perf record offcpu profiling tests : Ok 128: perf all PMU test : Ok 129: perf stat --bpf-counters test : Ok 130: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and synthesized samples: Skip 131: Check Arm CoreSight disassembly script completes without errors : Skip 132: Check Arm SPE trace data recording and synthesized samples : Skip 133: Test data symbol : Ok 134: Miscellaneous Intel PT testing : Skip 135: test Intel TPEBS counting mode : Skip 136: perf script task-analyzer tests : Ok 137: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname : Ok 138: perf trace summary : Ok Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Howard Chu <howardchu95@gmail.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/aC-hHTgArwlF_zu9@x1 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2025-05-20perf test probe_vfs_getname: Add regex for searching probe lineLeo Yan
Since commit 611851010c74046c ("fs: dedup handling of struct filename init and refcounts bumps"), the kernel has been refactored to use a new inline function initname(), moving name initialization into it. As a result, the perf probe test can no longer find the source line that matches the defined regular expressions. This causes the script to fail when attempting to add probes. Add a regular expression to search for the call site of initname(). This provides a valid source line number for adding the probe. Keeps the older regular expressions for passing test on older kernels.

2025-05-15perf test: Allow tolerance for leader sampling testChun-Tse Shao
There is a known issue that the leader sampling is inconsistent, since throttle only affect leader, not the slave. The detail is in [1]. To maintain test coverage, this patch sets a tolerance rate of 80% to accommodate the throttled samples and prevent test failures due to throttling.
