perf test stat tests: Fix for virtualized machines
[ Upstream commit e272628902c1c96731e2d9f62a7fc77767686eb0 ] On s390 'perf test's 'perf stat tests', subtest test_hybrid fails for z/VM systems. The root cause is this statement: $(perf stat -a -- sleep 0.1 2>&1 |\ grep -E "/cpu-cycles/[uH]*| cpu-cycles[:uH]* -c) The 'perf stat' output on a s390 z/VM system is # perf stat -a -- sleep 0.1 2>&1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 56 context-switches # 46.3 cs/sec cs_per_second 1,210.41 msec cpu-clock # 11.9 CPUs CPUs_utilized 12 cpu-migrations # 9.9 migrations/sec ... 81 page-faults # 66.9 faults/sec ... 0.100891009 seconds time elapsed The grep command does not match any single line and exits with error code 1. As the bash script is executed with 'set -e', it aborts with the first error code being non-zero. Fix this and use 'wc -l' to count matching lines instead of 'grep ... -c'. Output before: # perf test 102 102: perf stat tests : FAILED! # Output after: # perf test 102 102: perf stat tests : Ok # Fixes: bb6e7cb11d97ce19 ("perf tools: Add fallback for exclude_guest") Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Reviewed-by: James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Jan Polensky <japo@linux.ibm.com> Cc: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Sumanth Korikkar <sumanthk@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Vasily Gorbik <gor@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
