From f4a2aade6809c6573f420c6fc1031797dfe8a4d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Athira Rajeev Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2022 20:22:54 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] perf tests powerpc: Fix branch stack sampling test to include sanity check for branch filter Commit b55878c90ab92a24 ("perf test: Add test for branch stack sampling") added test for branch stack sampling. There is a sanity check in the beginning to skip the test if the hardware doesn't support branch stack sampling. Snippet <<>> skip the test if the hardware doesn't support branch stack sampling perf record -b -o- -B true > /dev/null 2>&1 || exit 2 <<>> But the testcase also uses branch sample types: save_type, any. if any platform doesn't support the branch filters used in the test, the testcase will fail. In powerpc, currently mutliple branch filters are not supported and hence this test fails in powerpc. Fix the sanity check to look at the support for branch filters used in this test before proceeding with the test.
