From 625f4de23fa8bdd22026051f7fc5a5844bac07ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Veronika Molnarova Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 15:43:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf test: Parse 'perf stat' Topdown events for aarch64 The 'perf stat' output on aarch64 machines with topdown events wasn't counted for in the 'perf stat STD output linter' test case. Add the topdown metric to the skip_metric list as it is done for topdown events on other systems. The Topdown events are also disabled on aarch64 KVM guests because the value of caps/slots is set to 0 due to the part of the system register being a stub. This prevents the metric for the topdown events from being computed, leaving the 'perf stat' topdown metric without any value at all. Add the "TopdownL1" to the skip_metric list as well to handle this possibility. Before aarch64: 100: perf stat STD output linter: --- start --- test child forked, pid 403305 Checking STD output: no args Unknown event name in TopdownL1 # 4.3 percent of slots slots_lost_misspeculation_fraction ---- end(-1) ---- 100: perf stat STD output linter : FAILED! Before aarch64 KVM: 100: perf stat STD output linter: --- start --- test child forked, pid 404671 Checking STD output: no args Unknown event name in TopdownL1 ---- end(-1) ---- 100: perf stat STD output linter : FAILED!
