[PATCH v2 1/1] perf test arm64: Test unwinding using fame-pointer (fp) mode

From: German Gomez
Date: Wed Mar 16 2022 - 13:21:21 EST


Add a shell script to check that the call-graphs generated using frame
pointers (--call-graph fp) are complete and not missing leaf functions:

| $ perf test 88 -v
| 88: Check Arm64 callgraphs are complete in fp mode :
| --- start ---
| test child forked, pid 8734
| + Compiling test program (/tmp/test_program.Cz3yL)...
| + Recording (PID=8749)...
| + Stopping perf-record...
| test_program.Cz
| 728 leaf
| 753 parent
| 76c main
| test child finished with 0
| ---- end ----
| Check Arm SPE callgraphs are complete in fp mode: Ok
