From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> In the 'perf test "mmap interface"' we try creating events for several tracepoints, but when perf_evsel__new() fails we're not showing which one is failing, fix that to help diagnosing problems, such as the syscall tracepoints ones being found and fixes in this merge window.
Now the failing tests shows: # perf test -v "mmap interface" 4: Read samples using the mmap interface : --- start --- test child forked, pid 14311 <SNIP> perf_evsel__new(sys_enter_getppid) test child finished with -1 ---- end ---- Read samples using the mmap interface: FAILED! # Now to check why the syscalls:sys_enter_getppid is failing... # ls -la /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_getppid ls: cannot access '/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_getppid': No such file or directory # Cc: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: David Ahern <[email protected]> Cc: Dominik Brodowski <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]> Cc: Wang Nan <[email protected]> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> --- tools/perf/tests/mmap-basic.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/tests/mmap-basic.c b/tools/perf/tests/mmap-basic.c index bb8e6bcb0d96..0919b0793e5b 100644 --- a/tools/perf/tests/mmap-basic.c +++ b/tools/perf/tests/mmap-basic.c @@ -75,7 +75,7 @@ int test__basic_mmap(struct test *test __maybe_unused, int subtest __maybe_unuse snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "sys_enter_%s", syscall_names[i]); evsels[i] = perf_evsel__newtp("syscalls", name); if (IS_ERR(evsels[i])) { - pr_debug("perf_evsel__new\n"); + pr_debug("perf_evsel__new(%s)\n", name); goto out_delete_evlist; } -- 2.14.3
