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.

Since commit 611851010c ("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.

Since we added --off-cpu-thresh, add tests for when a sample's off-cpu

Note that the basic test performed in test_offcpu_basic() collects a

The previous change to support cgroup filters introduced a bug that
pathname can include commas. It confused the lexer to treat an item and
the trailing comma as a single token. And it resulted in a parse error:
$ sudo perf record -e cycles:P --filter 'period > 0, ip > 64' -- true
perf_bpf_filter: Error: Unexpected item: 0,
perf_bpf_filter: syntax error, unexpected BFT_ERROR, expecting BFT_NUM
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
--filter <filter>
event filter
It should get "0" and "," separately.
An easiest fix would be to remove "," from the possible pathname
characters. As it's for cgroup names, probably ok to assume it won't
have commas in the pathname.
I found that the existing BPF filtering test didn't have any complex
filter condition with commas. Let's update the group filter test which
is supposed to test filter combinations like this.

Test case "stat_all_pmu.sh" is not correctly checking 'perf stat' output
due to a poor design. Firstly, having the 'set -e' option with a trap
catching the sigexit causes the shell to exit immediately if 'perf stat' ends
with any non-zero value, which is then caught by the trap reporting an
unexpected signal. This causes events that should be parsed by the if-else
statement to be caught by the trap handler and are reported as errors:
$ perf test -vv "perf all pmu"
Testing i915/actual-frequency/
Unexpected signal in main
Error:
Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.
Secondly, the if-else branches are not exclusive as the checking if the
event is present in the output log covers also the "<not supported>"
events, which should be accepted, and also the "Bad name events", which
should be rejected.
Remove the "set -e" option from the test case, correctly parse the
"perf stat" output log and check its return value. Add the missing
outputs for the 'perf stat' result and also add logs messages to
report the branch that parsed the event for more info.

With LTO builds, although regular builds could also see this as
all the code is in one file, the datasym workload can realize the
buf1.reserved data is never accessed. The compiler moves the
variable to bss and only keeps the data1 and data2 parts as
separate variables. This causes the symbol check to fail in the
test. Make the variable volatile to disable the more aggressive
optimization. Rename the variable to make which buf1 in perf is

The test failed back and forth due to the call chain being heavily
impacted by the libc, which varies across different architectures and
distros.
The libc contains the symbols for "gaih_inet" and "getaddrinfo" in some
cases, but not always. Moreover, these symbols can be either normal
symbols or dynamic symbols, making it difficult to decide the call chain
entries due to the symbols are inconsistent.
To fix the issue, this commit identifies three call chain entries are
always present. These entries are matched by iterating through the
lines in the "perf script" result. The recording attribute max-stack is
set to 4 for the possible maximum call chain depth.

perftool-testsuite_probe fails in test_adding_kernel as below:
Regexp not found: "probe:inode_permission_11"
-- [ FAIL ] -- perf_probe :: test_adding_kernel :: force-adding probes ::
second probe adding (with force) (output regexp parsing)
event syntax error: 'probe:inode_permission_11'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Error: File /sys/kernel/tracing//events/probe/inode_permission_11
not found.
Hint: Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to
enable this feature?.
The test does the following:
1) Adds a probe point first using:
$CMD_PERF probe --add $TEST_PROBE
2) Then tries to add same probe again without —force and expects it to
fail. Next tries to add same probe again with —force. In this case,
perf probe succeeds and adds the probe with a suffix number. Example:
./perf probe --add inode_permission
Added new event:
probe:inode_permission (on inode_permission)
./perf probe --add inode_permission --force
Added new event:
probe:inode_permission_1 (on inode_permission)
./perf probe --add inode_permission --force
Added new event:
probe:inode_permission_2 (on inode_permission)
Each time, suffix is added to existing probe name.
To get the suffix number, test cases uses:
NO_OF_PROBES=`$CMD_PERF probe -l | wc -l`
This will work if there is no other probe existing in the system. If
there are any other probes other than kernel probes or inode_permission,
( example: any probe), "perf probe -l" will include count for other
probes too.
Example, in the system where this failed, already some probes were
default added. So count became 10
./perf probe -l | wc -l
10
So to be specific for "inode_permission", restrict the probe count check
to that probe point alone using:
NO_OF_PROBES=`$CMD_PERF probe -l $TEST_PROBE| wc -l`
Similarly while removing the probe using "probe --del *", (removing all
probes), check uses:
../common/check_all_lines_matched.pl "Removed event: probe:$TEST_PROBE"
But if there are other probes in the system, the log will contain
reference to other existing probe too. Hence change usage of
check_all_lines_matched.pl to check_all_patterns_found.pl This will make
sure expecting string comes in the result

The brstack test runs quite slowly in software models. Part of the reason
is "xargs -n1" is quite inefficient in replacing spaces with newlines.
While that's not noticeable on normal machines, it is on software models.
Use "tr -s ' ' '\n'" instead which can do the same transformation, but is
much faster. For comparison on an M1 Macbook Pro:
$ time seq -s ' ' 10000 | xargs -n1 > /dev/null
real 0m2.729s
user 0m2.009s
sys 0m0.914s
$ time seq -s ' ' 10000 | tr -s ' ' '\n' | grep '.' > /dev/null
real 0m0.002s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.001s
The "grep '.'" is also needed to remove any remaining blank lines.
