Hmmm. This test always fail here, no matter whether I have this line
or not:

maz@big-leg-emma:~$ sudo perf_5.10 test -v 1

Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)
symsrc__init: cannot get elf header.

Couldn't find a vmlinux that matches the kernel running on this machine,
skipping test
test child finished with -2

Rookie question: How do you provide a kernel to the test framework?
