From: Thomas Richter Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2017 08:12:09 +0000 (+0200) Subject: perf test attr: Fix ignored test case result X-Git-Tag: v4.19~2244^2~25^2~5 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=22905582f6dd4bbd0c370fe5732c607452010c04;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git perf test attr: Fix ignored test case result Command perf test -v 16 (Setup struct perf_event_attr test) always reports success even if the test case fails. It works correctly if you also specify -F (for don't fork). root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -v 16 15: Setup struct perf_event_attr : --- start --- running './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay' [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB /tmp/tmp4E1h7R/perf.data (1 samples) ] expected task=0, got 1 expected precise_ip=0, got 3 expected wakeup_events=1, got 0 FAILED './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay' - match failure test child finished with 0 ---- end ---- Setup struct perf_event_attr: Ok The reason for the wrong error reporting is the return value of the system() library call. It is called in run_dir() file tests/attr.c and returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00. This value is given as parameter to the exit() function which can only handle values 0-0xff. The child process terminates with exit value of 0 and the parent does not detect any error. This patch corrects the error reporting and prints the correct test result.
