Based on above logs, we could see some of the hv-24x7 metric events
fails, and logs suggest to run the metric event with -a option. This
change happened after the commit a4b8cfcabb1d90ec ("perf stat: Delay
metric parsing"), which delayed the metric parsing phase and now before
metric parsing phase perf tool identifies, whether target is system-wide
or not. With this change, perf_event_open will fails with workload
monitoring for uncore events as expected.
The perf all metric test case fails as some of the hv-24x7 metric events
may need bigger workload with system wide monitoring to get the data.
Fix this issue by changing current system wide check from true workload
to sleep 0.01 workload.
Result with the patch changes in powerpc:
98: perf all metrics test : Ok
Fixes: a4b8cfcabb1d90ec ("perf stat: Delay metric parsing")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
