[PATCH v5] perf test: Introduce script for data symbol testing
From: Leo Yan
Date: Thu Oct 06 2022 - 06:10:57 EST
This commit introduces a shell script for data symbol testing.
The testing is designed a data structure with 64-byte alignment, it has
two fields "data1" and "data2", and other fields are reserved.
Using "perf mem" command, we can record and report memory samples for a
self-contained workload with 1 second duration. If have no any memory
sample for the data structure "buf1", it reports failure; and by
checking the offset in structure "buf1", if any memory accessing is not
for "data1" and "data2" fields, it means wrong data symbol parsing and
returns failure.

Changes from v4:
- Remove the redundant argument "--" before CPU list (Namhyung).
This patch is dependent on the fixing:

Changes from v3:
- Add specific testing chunk for AMD CPUs (Ravi).
