Subject: [PATCH] perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for s390
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2020 15:53:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200729135314.91281-1-tmricht@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Commit 5aa98879efe7 ("s390/cpum_sf: prohibit callchain data collection")
prohibits call graph sampling for hardware events on s390. The
information recorded is out of context and does not match.
On s390 this commit now breaks test case 68
Zstd perf.data compression/decompression.
Therefore omit call graph sampling on s390 in this test.
Output before:
[root@t35lp46 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 68
68: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression :
--- start ---
Collecting compressed record file:
Error:
cycles: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
Try 'perf stat'
---- end ----
Zstd perf.data compression/decompression: FAILED!

Output after:
[root@t35lp46 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 68
