2026-02-06perf test: Fix test case Leader sampling on s390Thomas Richter
The subtest 'Leader sampling' some time fails on s390. - for z/VM guest: Disable the test for z/VM guest. There is no CPU Measurement facility to run the test successfully. - for LPAR: Use correct event names. A detailed analysis follows here: Now to the debugging and investigation: 1. With command perf record -e '{cycles,cycles}:S' -- .... the first cycles event starts sampling. On s390 this sets up sampling with a frequency of 4000 Hz. This translates to hardware sample rate of 1377000 instructions per micro-second to meet a frequency of 4000 HZ. 2. With first event cycles now sampling into a hardware buffer, an interrupt is triggered each time a sampling buffer gets full. The interrupt handler is then invoked and debug output shows the processing of samples. The size of one hardware sample is 32 bytes. With an interrupt triggered when the hardware buffer page of 4KB gets full, the interrupt handler processes 128 samples. (This is taken from s390 specific fast debug data gathering) 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977248 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x0 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977248 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x1502e8 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977248 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x2a05d0 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977252 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x3f08b8 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977252 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x540ba0 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977253 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x690e88 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977254 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x7e1170 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977254 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0x931458 count 0x1502e8 2025-11-07 14:35:51.977254 000003ffe013cbfa \ perf_event_count_update event->count 0xa81740 count 0x1502e8 3. The value is constantly increasing by the number of instructions executed to generate a sample entry.

The second event cycles is opened against the counting PMU, which is an independent PMU and is not interrupt driven. Once enabled it runs in the background and keeps running, incrementing silently about 400+ counters. The counter values are read via assembly instructions. This second counter PMU's read call back function is called when the interrupt handler of the sampling facility processes each sample. The function call sequence is: perf_event_overflow() +--> __perf_event_overflow() +--> __perf_event_output() +--> perf_output_sample() +--> perf_output_read() +--> perf_output_read_group() for_each_sibling_event(sub, leader) { values[n++] = perf_event_count(sub, self); printk("%s sub %p values %#lx\n", __func__, sub, values[n-1]); } The last function perf_event_count() is invoked on the second event cylces *on* the counting PMU. An added printk statement shows the following lines in the dmesg output: # dmesg|grep perf_output_read_group |head -10 [ 332.368620] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a80917 (1) [ 332.368624] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a86c7f (2) [ 332.368627] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a89c15 (3) [ 332.368629] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a8c895 (4) [ 332.368631] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a8f569 (5) [ 332.368633] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a9204b [ 332.368635] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a94790 [ 332.368637] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a9704b [ 332.368638] perf_output_read_group sub 00000000d80b7c1f values 0x3a99888 # This correlates with the output of # perf report -D | grep 'id 00000000000000'|head -10 ..... id 0000000000000006, value 00000000001502e8, lost 0 ..... id 000000000000000e, value 0000000003a80917, lost 0 --> line (1) above ..... id 0000000000000006, value 00000000002a05d0, lost 0 ..... id 000000000000000e, value 0000000003a86c7f, lost 0 --> line (2) above ..... id 0000000000000006, value 00000000003f08b8, lost 0 ..... id 000000000000000e, value 0000000003a89c15, lost 0 --> line (3) above ..... id 0000000000000006, value 0000000000540ba0, lost 0 ..... id 000000000000000e, value 0000000003a8c895, lost 0 --> line (4) above ..... id 0000000000000006, value 0000000000690e88, lost 0 ..... id 000000000000000e, value 0000000003a8f569, lost 0 --> line (5) above Summary: - Above command starts the CPU sampling facility, with runs interrupt driven when a 4KB page is full. An interrupt processes the 128 samples and calls eventually perf_output_read_group() for each sample to save it in the event's ring buffer. - At that time the CPU counting facility is invoked to read the value of the event cycles. This value is saved as the second value in the sample_read structure. - The first and odd lines in the perf script output displays the period value between 2 samples being created by hardware. It is the number of instructions executes before the hardware writes a sample. - The second and even lines in the perf script output displays the number of CPU cycles needed to process each sample and save it in the event's ring buffer. These 2 different values can never be identical on s390. Since event leader sampling is not possible on s390 the perf tool will return EOPNOTSUPP soon. Perpare the test case for that.

2024-10-17perf test: Speed up some tests using perf listNamhyung Kim
On my system, perf list is very slow to print the whole events. I think there's a performance issue in SDT and uprobes event listing. I noticed this issue while running perf test on x86 but it takes long to check some CoreSight event which should be skipped quickly. Anyway, some test uses perf list to check whether the required event is available before running the test. The perf list command can take an argument to specify event class or (glob) pattern. But glob pattern is only to suppress output for unmatched ones after checking all events. In this case, specifying event class is better to reduce the number of events it checks and to avoid buggy subsystems entirely. No functional changes intended.

2024-08-14perf test record.sh: Raise limit of open file descriptorsVeronika Molnarova
Subtest for system-wide record with '--threads=cpu' option fails due to a limit of open file descriptors on systems with 128 or more CPUs as the default limit is set to 1024. The number of open file descriptors should be slightly above nmb_events*nmb_cpus + nmb_cpus(for perf.data.n) + 4*nmb_cpus(for pipes), which equals 8*nmb_cpus. Therefore, temporarily raise the limit to 16*nmb_cpus for the test. Committer notes: Instead of disabling ShellCheck warnings all the uses of 'uname -n', i.e. those: In tests/shell/record.sh line 35: default_fd_limit=$(ulimit -Sn) ^-^ SC3045 (warning): In POSIX sh, ulimit -S is undefined. We can just switch from using '/bin/sh' to '/bin/bash' for this test, as bash _has_ 'ulimit -n', so ShellCheck will not emit that warning. There are dozens of 'perf test' shell tests that do just that, '/bin/bash' is a reasonable expectation for those tests.

2022-10-27perf test: Do not set TEST_SKIP for record subtestsNamhyung Kim
It now has 4 sub tests and at least one of them should run. But once the TEST_SKIP (= 2) return value is set, it won't be overwritten unless there's a failure. I think we should return success when one or more tests are skipped but the remaining subtests are passed. So update the test code not to set the err variable when it skips the test.

Add system wide recording test with the same pattern. It'd skip the test when it fails to run 'perf record'.

Just running the target program is not enough to test multi-thread target because it'd be racy perf vs target startup. I used the initial delay but it cannot guarantee for perf to see the thread. Instead, use wait_for_threads helper from shell/lib/waiting.sh to make sure it starts the sibling thread first. Then perf record can use -p option to profile the target process.
