Hi,

Hmm, looks like we can't simply add arch-specific test:

--- a/tools/perf/tests/parse-events.c
+++ b/tools/perf/tests/parse-events.c
@@ -1346,6 +1346,12 @@ static struct evlist_test test__events[] = {
 		.name  = "{cycles,cache-misses,branch-misses}:D",

+	[42] = {
+		.name  = "kvm-s390:kvm_s390_create_vm",
+		.check = test__checkevent_tracepoint,
+	},
+#endif /* and what will be the next number: 42 or 43? */
 };

 static struct evlist_test test__events_pmu[] = {


Because it breaks explicit numbering of test__events[].
I can suggest to move numeration into evlist_test, i.e.

--- a/tools/perf/tests/parse-events.c
+++ b/tools/perf/tests/parse-events.c
@@ -1174,25 +1174,30 @@ static int test__all_tracepoints(struct perf_evlist *evlist)

 };

-	[0] = {
+	{
 		.name  = "syscalls:sys_enter_open",
 		.check = test__checkevent_tracepoint,
+		.index = 0;
 	},
...

or just to remove it?

How do you think?


And a bit of offtopic :)
Apparently, s390 doesn't have syscalls:*, so some of the tests
don't work properly (or maybe I missed something? I set CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS
to 'y' in my config: still no syscalls:*).

What do you think about this idea:

--- a/tools/perf/tests/parse-events.c
+++ b/tools/perf/tests/parse-events.c
@@ -1177,13 +1177,21 @@ struct evlist_test {
 	int (*check)(struct perf_evlist *evlist);

-		.name  = "syscalls:sys_enter_open",
+		.name  = TP_SYS_NAME ":" TP_EVENT_NAME,
 		.check = test__checkevent_tracepoint,
 	},

... and so on?

Also, test_pmu() looks at /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/
but instead of "cpu/" on s390 there are "cpum_sf/" and "cpum_cf/",
so pmu tests don't work either..


Thanks
