Subject: [PATCH v1] perf tests task-analyzer: Write all test files to tmpdir
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 23:16:24 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260321061624.811157-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

Writing to the test output files in the current working directory can
fail in various contexts such as continual test. Other tests write to
a mktemp-ed file, make the "perf script task-analyszer tests" follow
this convention too. Currently this isn't possible for the perf.data
file due to a lack of perf script support.
