[ Upstream commit3440fe2790] Commitd78ada4a76("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: [root@s8360046 perf]# /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ \ -p ./perf -v -ttest-stat-basic running './tests/attr//test-stat-basic' Traceback (most recent call last): File "./tests/attr.py", line 379, in <module> main() File "./tests/attr.py", line 370, in main run_tests(options) File "./tests/attr.py", line 311, in run_tests Test(f, options).run() File "./tests/attr.py", line 300, in run self.compare(self.expect, self.result) File "./tests/attr.py", line 248, in compare exp_event.diff(res_event) UnboundLocalError: local variable 'res_event' referenced before assignment [root@s8360046 perf]# This patch catches this pitfall and prints an error message instead: [root@s8360047 perf]# /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ \ -p ./perf -vvv -ttest-stat-basic running './tests/attr//test-stat-basic' loading expected events Event event:base-stat fd = 1 group_fd = -1 flags = 0|8 [....] sample_regs_user = 0 sample_stack_user = 0 'PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp/tmpJbMQMP ./perf stat -o /tmp/tmpJbMQMP/perf.data -e cycles kill >/dev/null 2>&1' ret '1', expected '1' loading result events compare matching [event:base-stat] match: [event:base-stat] matches [] res_event is empty FAILED './tests/attr//test-stat-basic' - match failure [root@s8360047 perf]# Signed-off-by: Thomas-Mich Richter <tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: Thomas-Mich Richter <tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com> LPU-Reference: 20170913081209.39570-1-tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-04d63nn7svfgxdhi60gq2mlm@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
