The stop_noploops function will kill the noploop processes that are
running for 10 seconds.
On a loaded machine they may have already terminated meaning the kill
will return an error of no such process.
This doesn't matter and so ignore the error to avoid the test
terminating in the cleanup.

LBR is also updated but inaccuracy in the branched to IP means the

On s390 'perf test's 'perf stat tests', subtest test_hybrid fails for

$(perf stat -a -- sleep 0.1 2>&1 |\
grep -E "/cpu-cycles/[uH]*| cpu-cycles[:uH]* -c)
The 'perf stat' output on a s390 z/VM system is

The grep command does not match any single line and exits with error

As the bash script is executed with 'set -e', it aborts with the first

Fix this and use 'wc -l' to count matching lines instead of 'grep ... -c'.

If perf is built into an output directory then so is
libperf-jvmti.so.
If `perf test` is run from that directory then PWD needn't also be that
directory meaning libperf-jvmti.so won't be found and the test skipped.
Add an additional check for libperf-jvmti.so in the same directory as
the perf binary for this case, this avoids the test skipping.

Now event parsing and handling is greatly simplified by that.

legacy hardware:

branches
[Retired branch instructions [This event is an alias of branch-instructions]. Unit: cpu]
bus-cycles
[Bus cycles,which can be different from total cycles. Unit: cpu]
cache-misses
[Cache misses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache misses; this is intended to be used in conjunction with the
PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES event to calculate cache miss rates. Unit: cpu]
cache-references
[Cache accesses. Usually this indicates Last Level Cache accesses but this may vary depending on your CPU. This may include
prefetches and coherency messages; again this depends on the design of your CPU. Unit: cpu]

This will be transparent to users when it comes to other commands like
perf report and perf script. They will merge the deferred callchains to

including GCS, MTE allocation tags, memcpy/memset, register access,

* Add inverted data source filter (inv_data_src_filter) support to

* Arm64: Added metrics for i.MX94 DDR PMU and Cortex-A720AE definitions.
* RISC-V: Added JSON support for T-HEAD C920V2.

The mem-loads-aux event exists on hybrid systems but the "cpu" PMU
does not. This causes an event parsing error which erroneously makes
the test look like it is failing. Avoid naming the PMU to avoid
this. Rather than cleaning up perf.data in the directory the test is
run, explicitly send the 'perf record' output to /dev/null and avoid
any cleanup scripts.

Couple of independent fixes:
1. Wire in SIGSEGV handler that terminates the test with a failure code.
2. Use "--lock-cgroup" instead of "-g"; "-g" was proposed but never
merged. See commit 4d1792d0a2 ("perf lock contention: Add
--lock-cgroup option")
3. Call cleanup() on every normal exit so trap_cleanup() doesn't mistake
it for an unexpected signal and emit a false-negative "Unexpected
signal in main" message.

This adds test cases to verify the precise ip fallback logic:
- If the system supports precise ip, for an event given with the maximum
precision level, it should be able to decrease precise_ip to find a
supported level.
- The same fallback behavior should also work in more complex scenarios,
such as event groups or when PEBS is involved
Additional fallback tests, such as those covering missing feature cases,
can be added in the future.

well as to know the python command to invoke.
These are hard coded at build time to be build a directory and the

setup and determine a potential built python module via the path of the

commit edf2cadf01 ("perf test: add test for BPF metadata collection")
fails consistently on the version string check. The perf version
string on some of the constant integration test machines contains
characters with special meaning in grep's extended regular expression
matching algorithm. The output of perf version is:
# perf version
perf version 6.17.0-20250814.rc1.git20.24ea63ea3877.63.fc42.s390x+git
#
and the '+' character has special meaning in egrep command.
Also the use of egrep is deprecated.
Change the perf version string check to fixed character matching

The 'kernel lock contention analysis test' requires reliable triggering
of lock contention. On some systems, previous benchmark calls failed to
generate sufficient contention due to low system activity or resource

This patch adds the -p (pipe) option to all calls of perf bench sched

The annotate test was sped up by Thomas Richter
<tmricht@linux.ibm.com> in commit
658a8805cb ("perf test: Speed up test case 70 annotate basic tests")
by reducing the annotate output using head. This causes flakes on
hybrid machines where the first event dumped may not have the samples
for the test within it. Rather than reduce the output using `head`
switch to `--percent-limit 10` which will stop annotate dumping
functions that have an overhead of less than 10%, the noploop program
should be using more.

There are 43 instances of posix shell tests and 35 instances of bash. To
give us a single consistent language for testing in, replace
all #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash. Common sources that are included in both
different shells will now work as expected. And we no longer have to fix
up bashisms that appear to work when someone's system has sh symlinked
to bash, but don't work on other systems that have both shells
installed.
Although we could have chosen sh, it's not backwards compatible so it
wouldn't be possible to bulk convert without re-writing the existing
bash tests.
Choosing bash also gives us some nicer features including 'local'
variable definitions and regexes in if statements that are already
widely used in the tests.
It's not expected that there are any users with only sh available due to
the large number of bash tests that exist.
Discussed in relation to running shellcheck here:

This is an end-to-end test for the PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA support.
It adds a new "bpf_metadata_perf_version" variable to perf's BPF programs,
so that when they are loaded, there will be at least one BPF program with
some metadata to parse. The test invokes "perf record" in a way that loads
one of those BPF programs, and then sifts through the output to find its
BPF metadata.

Ian mentioned a reliably occurred failure in the trace_btf_general test
where he obtained trace output of:
sleep/279619 clock_nanosleep(0, 0, {1,1,}, 0x7ffcd47b6450) = 0
But the regex pattern used for verification is
"^sleep/[0-9]+ clock_nanosleep\(0, 0, \{1,\}, ..."
This lead to a mismatch.
The reason is, different sleep commands use different timespec data to
call clock_nanosleep, on my machine, the value of tv_nsec is 0.
~~~
$ sudo /tmp/perf/perf trace -e clock_nanosleep -- sleep 1
0.000 (1000.196 ms): sleep/54261 clock_nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec:
1, .tv_nsec: 0 }, rmtp: 0x7ffe13529550) = 0
~~~
While Ian had this trace log:
~~~
$ sudo /tmp/perf/perf trace -e clock_nanosleep -- sleep 1
0.000 (1000.208 ms): sleep/1710732 clock_nanosleep(rqtp: {
.tv_sec: 1, .tv_nsec: 1 }, rmtp: 0x7ffc091f4090) = 0
~~~
Because sleep's behavior of setting 'tv_nsec' is not certain, and tv_sec
is most definitely 1, this patch relaxes the key regex pattern to
'\{1,.*\}' for a better chance of matching.

The event 'timer:hrtimer_setup' is relatively new, for older kernels,
perf trace enum tests won't run as the event 'timer:hrtimer_setup'
cannot be found.
It was originally called 'timer:hrtimer_init', before being renamed in:
commit 244132c4e5 ("tracing/timers: Rename the hrtimer_init event to hrtimer_setup")
Using timer:hrtimer_start should be enough for current testing, and
hopefully 'start' won't be renamed in the future.

Currently perf test utilizes the set -e option in shell that exit
immediately if a command exits with a non-zero status, this prevents
further error handling and introduces ambiguity. This patch removes set
-e and prints the error message after invoking perf trace during perf
tests.
In my case, the command that exits with a non-zero status is perf
trace instead of grep, because it can't find the 'timer:hrtimer_setup'

And it is being successfull only when running alone, probably because
there are some tests that add the vfs_getname probe that gets used by
'perf trace' and alter how it does syscall arg pathname resolution.
This should be removed or made a fallback to the preferred BPF mode of
getting syscall parameters, but till then, run this in exclusive mode.
For reference, here are some of the tests that run close to this one:
127: perf record offcpu profiling tests : Ok
128: perf all PMU test : Ok
129: perf stat --bpf-counters test : Ok
130: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and synthesized samples: Skip
131: Check Arm CoreSight disassembly script completes without errors : Skip
132: Check Arm SPE trace data recording and synthesized samples : Skip
133: Test data symbol : Ok
134: Miscellaneous Intel PT testing : Skip
135: test Intel TPEBS counting mode : Skip
136: perf script task-analyzer tests : Ok
137: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname : Ok
138: perf trace summary : Ok

Since commit 611851010c ("fs: dedup handling of struct filename
init and refcounts bumps"), the kernel has been refactored to use a new
inline function initname(), moving name initialization into it.
As a result, the perf probe test can no longer find the source line that
matches the defined regular expressions. This causes the script to fail
when attempting to add probes.
Add a regular expression to search for the call site of initname(). This
provides a valid source line number for adding the probe. Keeps the
older regular expressions for passing test on older kernels.
Fixes: 611851010c ("fs: dedup handling of struct filename init and refcounts bumps")

There is a known issue that the leader sampling is inconsistent, since
throttle only affect leader, not the slave. The detail is in [1].
To maintain test coverage, this patch sets a tolerance rate of 80% to
accommodate the throttled samples and prevent test failures due to
throttling.

If we can skip empty branch stacks from the idle tasks, the failure

I suspect it is due to two metrics for different CPU types being
enabled. Add a -cputype option to avoid this. The test still fails with:
```

[
Wrong Metric Value Error: The collected value of metric ['tma_l2_hit_latency']

which is a reproducible genuine error and likely requires a metric fix.

On continuous testing the perf script output can be empty, or nearly
empty, causing tr/grep to exit and due to "set -e" the test traps and
fails.
Add some empty file handling that sets the test to skip and make grep
and other text rewriting failures non-fatal by adding "|| true".

Since we added --off-cpu-thresh, add tests for when a sample's off-cpu
time is above the threshold, and when it's below the threshold.
Note that the basic test performed in test_offcpu_basic() collects a
direct sample now, since sleep 1 has duration of 1000ms, higher than the
default value of --off-cpu-thresh of 500ms, resulting in a direct
sample.
An example:
$ sudo perf test offcpu
