This commit introduces comprehensive A/B testing and comparison
capabilities for the mmtests workflow in kdevops, enabling performance
regression detection between baseline and development kernels.
Key Features Added:
- A/B testing configuration support for mmtests workflow
- Automated performance comparison between baseline and dev nodes
- Visual performance analysis with graph generation
- HTML reports with embedded performance graphs
New Components:
1. Defconfigs:
- mmtests-ab-testing: Basic A/B testing setup
- mmtests-ab-testing-thpcompact: Advanced config with monitoring
2. Comparison Infrastructure (playbooks/roles/mmtests_compare/):
- Automated result collection from baseline and dev nodes
- Local mmtests repository management with patch support
- Multiple comparison output formats (HTML, text, graphs)
- Shell scripts for graph generation and HTML embedding
3. Playbook Integration:
- mmtests-compare.yml: Orchestrates the comparison workflow
- Updated mmtests.yml to target mmtests group specifically
- Enhanced hosts template with localhost and mmtests group
4. Result Visualization:
- Performance graphs (main, sorted, smoothed trends)
- Monitor data visualization (vmstat, mpstat, proc stats)
- Professional HTML reports with embedded graphs
- Comprehensive comparison tables with statistical analysis
5. Workflow Enhancements:
- Support for applying patches from fixes directory
- Python script for advanced graph generation
- Makefile targets for comparison workflow
- Results organization in workflows/mmtests/results/
Technical Improvements:
- Added localhost to mmtests hosts template for local operations
- Added dedicated mmtests group definition in hosts template
- Support for applying patches from fixes directory
- Robust error handling in comparison scripts
- Dependency management for Perl and Python tools
- Temporary file management in /tmp for comparisons
Included Patches:
- Fix undefined array reference in mmtests compare
- Fix library order in thpcompact gcc command
The implementation supports the standard kdevops A/B testing pattern
where baseline nodes run the stable kernel and dev nodes run the
development kernel, with automated comparison and visualization of
performance differences between them.
Usage:
make defconfig-mmtests-ab-testing
make bringup
make mmtests
make mmtests-compare
This enables developers to quickly identify performance regressions
and improvements between kernel versions with professional-quality
reports and visualizations.

+Subject: [PATCH] compare: Fix undefined array reference when no operations
+ found
+
+When a benchmark produces no results (e.g., thpcompact when the binary
+fails to build), the compare script would crash with:
+'Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at Compare.pm line 461'
+
+This happens because $operations[0] doesn't exist when no operations
+are found. Add proper bounds checking to handle empty results gracefully.

+Subject: [PATCH] thpcompact: fix library order in gcc command
+
+The gcc command in thpcompact-install has the libraries specified
+before the source file, which causes linking errors on modern systems:
+
+ undefined reference to `get_mempolicy'
+
+Fix by moving the libraries after the source file, as required by
+modern linkers that process dependencies in order.
