[PATCH] perf/test: perf test 83 fails on s390

From: Thomas Richter
Date: Fri Jun 03 2022 - 07:31:02 EST


perf test -F 83 ("perf stat CSV output linter") fails on s390.
Reason is the wrong number of fields for certain CPU core/die/socket
related output.

On x84_64 the output of command
# ./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge true
CPU0,1.50,msec,cpu-clock,1502781,100.00,1.052,CPUs utilized
CPU1,1.48,msec,cpu-clock,1476113,100.00,1.034,CPUs utilized
...
results in 8 fields with 7 comma separators.

On s390 the output of command
# ./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge -- true
0.95,msec,cpu-clock,949800,100.00,1.060,CPUs utilized
...
results in 7 fields with 6 comma separators. Therefore this tests
fails on s390. Similar issues exist for per-die and per-socket output
which is not supported on s390.

I have rewritten the python program to count commas in each output line
into a bash function to achieve the same result. I hope this makes
it a bit easier.

Output before:
# ./perf test -F 83
83: perf stat CSV output linter :
Checking CSV output: no args [Success]
Checking CSV output: system wide [Success]
Checking CSV output: system wide Checking CSV output: \
system wide no aggregation 6.92,msec,cpu-clock,\
6918131,100.00,6.972,CPUs utilized
...
RuntimeError: wrong number of fields. expected 7 in \
6.92,msec,cpu-clock,6918131,100.00,6.972,CPUs utilized

FAILED!
#

Output after:
# ./perf test -F 83
83: perf stat CSV output linter :
Checking CSV output: no args [Success]
Checking CSV output: system wide [Success]
Checking CSV output: system wide Checking CSV output:\
system wide no aggregation [Success]

Checking CSV output: per core [Success]
Checking CSV output: per thread [Success]
Checking CSV output: per die [Success]
Checking CSV output: per node [Success]
Checking CSV output: per socket [Success]
Ok
