Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf tests data_validation: Fixup test header
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 09:10:47 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <agHHR56pFGeDJOxE@x1> (raw)
We made a mistake by having the SPDX comment in the second line, where
'perf test' shell support expects the test title, fix it.
Now we can specify a substring and have that test selected:
root@number:~# perf test truncat
84: Test that perf report handles truncated perf.data gracefully (no crash, no segfault — clean error exit).: Ok
root@number:~# perf test -vv truncat
84: Test that perf report handles truncated perf.data gracefully (no crash, no segfault — clean error exit).:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 62890
---- end(0) ----
84: Test that perf report handles truncated perf.data gracefully (no crash, no segfault — clean error exit).: Ok
root@number:~#
Fixes: 24be50a54cb38cb4 ("perf test: Add truncated perf.data robustness test")
