2013-01-24perf tests: Adjust some message log levels to help diagnosing problems in ↵Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-9/+18
attr tests Now we'll see the command being run and if it fails, the fields that had unexpected values and the expected values, example testing a problem in the next patch: # perf test -v 13 13: struct perf_event_attr setup : --- start --- SNIP running 'PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp/tmpDNIE6M /home/acme/bin/perf record -o /tmp/tmpDNIE6M/perf.data --group -e cycles,instructions kill >/dev/null 2>&1' ret 0 running 'PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp/tmpV5lKro /home/acme/bin/perf stat -o /tmp/tmpV5lKro/perf.data -dd kill >/dev/null 2>&1' ret 1 expected config=3, got 65540 expected exclude_guest=1, got 0 FAILED '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-stat-detailed-2' - match failure ---- end ---- struct perf_event_attr setup: FAILED! # While in the past we would see at the '-v' level many more messages for the fields that matched, something we may want to see only in the '-vv' log level. Keeping the 'running' messages so that we can see the tools tests that succeeded so that we can compare it to the one that failed, helping pinpointing the command line switch combo that leads to the problem.

2012-11-08perf tests: Move attr.py temp dir cleanup into finally sectionJiri Olsa1-14/+16
Currently if there's 'Unsup' exception raised, we do not clean up the temp directory. Solving this by adding 'finally' to make the cleanup in any case.

2012-11-05perf tests: Removing 'optional' fieldJiri Olsa1-11/+18
Since we allow multiple values in event field assignment, there's no need for 'optional' field.. old version removal leftover. Adding some comments into attr.py script regarding the test event load.

2012-11-05perf tests: Fix attr watermark field name typoJiri Olsa1-1/+1
Currently the 'watermark' field is coded as 'watermask'. As the type is global through the framework and tests, the typo spawned no error.

2012-10-31perf tests: Add framework for automated perf_event_attr testsJiri Olsa1-0/+313
The idea is run perf session with kidnapping sys_perf_event_open function. For each sys_perf_event_open call we store the perf_event_attr data to the file to be checked later against what we expect. You can run this by: $ python ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -v v2 changes: - preserve errno value in the hook Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121031145247.GB1027@krava.brq.redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
