[PATCH v3 5/7] perf test: Enhance annotate test coverage and isolate config
From: Ian Rogers
Date: Tue Jun 09 2026 - 14:29:34 EST
Update the annotate.sh shell test to test different disassembler
backends (objdump, llvm, capstone, libasm) utilizing the new
--disassembler command-line option.
Isolate the test script from host environment pollution by exporting
PERF_CONFIG=/dev/null at the start of the script, ensuring it runs
hermetically.
