[PATCH v1] perf test: Skip diff test if test_loop is missing

[PATCH v1] perf test: Skip diff test if test_loop is missing

[Ian Rogers]

The diff test depends on finding the symbol test_loop in perf and will
fail if perf has been stripped and no debug object is available. In
that case, skip the test instead.

The verbose output in the error case could also
be tweaked.

Before patch:

 $ strip tools/perf/perf
 $ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -p $(realpath tools/perf/perf)
 $ tools/perf/perf test -v 'diff test'
  85: perf diff tests                                                 :
 --- start ---
 test child forked, pid 8621
 Basic two file diff test
 ./tools/perf/tests/shell/diff.sh: 51: [: Workload: unexpected operator
 ./tools/perf/tests/shell/diff.sh: 56: [: Workload: unexpected operator
 Basic two file diff test [Failed diff]
 Basic three file diff test
 ./tools/perf/tests/shell/diff.sh: 73: [: Workload: unexpected operator
 ./tools/perf/tests/shell/diff.sh: 78: [: Workload: unexpected operator
 ./tools/perf/tests/shell/diff.sh: 83: [: Workload: unexpected operator
 Basic three file diff test [Failed diff]
 test child finished with -1
 ---- end ----
 perf diff tests: FAILED!

After patch:

 $ tools/perf/perf test -v 'diff test'
  85: perf diff tests                                                 :
 --- start ---
 test child forked, pid 8853
 perf does not have symbol 'test_loop'
 perf is missing symbols - skipping test
 test child finished with -2
 ---- end ----
 perf diff tests: Skip

 and with symbols:

 $ tools/perf/perf test -v 'diff test'
  85: perf diff tests                                                 :
 --- start ---
 test child forked, pid 10122
  103e20-103e60 g test_loop
 perf does have symbol 'test_loop'
 Basic two file diff test
 Basic two file diff test [Success]
 Basic three file diff test
 Basic three file diff test [Success]
 test child finished with 0
 ---- end ----
 perf diff tests: Ok
