It optimizes the parallel execution harness, introduces automated summary reporting, adds standardized JUnit XML report generation, and removes runtime external C compiler dependencies for continuous integration environments. 1. Parallel execution optimizations: - When running in parallel verbose mode (-v), the parent test harness previously only polled the pipe of the current active test wait-loop, blocking other children once they filled their 64KB pipe buffer. This series refactors the loop to drain all children's output pipes simultaneously, reducing parallel execution times for high-output suites (like PMU events) from ~35 seconds down to ~5.9 seconds. - Hardens `check_if_command_finished()` and `wait_or_whine()` inside `tools/lib/subcmd` to safely handle invalid PIDs, using a robust waitpid fallback when procfs limits are hit to prevent zombie leak loops and PID reuse hazards. - Fixes race conditions and concurrent process reaping hazards inside the Intel TPEBS driver (`intel-tpebs.c`). 2. Improved Console Summary and Failure Snippets: - Shows context failure snippets for failed tests in moderate verbose mode (-v) without requiring extremely verbose output (-vv). - Prints a concise, colored console execution summary showing passed, skipped, and failed counts for main tests and individual subtests at the absolute tail of the run, together with the indices of all failed tests. 3. Automated JUnit XML Reports: - Adds a `-j/--junit [filename]` option to generate standardized XML test reports, capturing execution duration and XML-escaped failure logs or skip reasons for each test. - Includes a dedicated shell validation test validating XML report structure via Python's ElementTree parser. 4. PMU Events & Monolithic Suite Splitting: - Generates dynamic sub-tests for each PMU event metric table instead of a single monolithic sanity test, enabling fine-grained tracing. - Splits the monolithic `util` test suite into independent sub-tests for easier failure isolation. 5. CI & Environmental Hardening: - Removes runtime dependency on `/usr/bin/cc` inside the Intel PT shell test by introducing a built-in `jitdump` C workload that generates JIT self-modifying code natively across x86, ARM, RISC-V, MIPS, and others.
