Subject: [PATCH v2] perf test: Fix perf test case 84 on s390
Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2024 10:17:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241018081732.1391060-1-tmricht@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Perf test case 84 'perf pipe recording and injection test'
sometime fails on s390, especially on z/VM virtual machines.
This is caused by a very short run time of workload
# perf test -w noploop
which runs for 1 second. Occasionally this is not long
enough and the perf report has no samples for symbol noploop.
Fix this and enlarge the runtime for the perf work load
to 3 seconds. This ensures the symbol noploop is always
present. Since only s390 is affected, make this loop
architecture dependend.
Output before:
Inject -b build-ids test

[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.195 MB - ]
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

Inject --buildid-all build-ids test [Failed - cannot find
noploop function in pipe #2]
Output after:
Successful execution for over 10 times in a loop.
