Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] perf tests: add test for trace output loss
Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2024 23:21:28 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241107232128.108981-3-benjamin@engflow.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241107232128.108981-1-benjamin@engflow.com>
Add a test that checks that trace output is not lost to races. This is
accomplished by tracing the exit_group syscall of "true" multiple times and
checking for correct output.
