This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled perf tests task_analyzer: Fix bad substitution ${$1} to the 6.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: perf-tests-task_analyzer-fix-bad-substitution-1.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5e8eef0856efac32e1bb6589b7f7ed4aebdcf642 Author: Aditya Gupta <adityag@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jun 13 22:11:43 2023 +0530 perf tests task_analyzer: Fix bad substitution ${$1} [ Upstream commit 5c4396efb53ef07d046a2e9456b240880e0c3076 ] ${$1} gives bad substitution error on sh, bash, and zsh. This seems like a typo, and this patch modifies it to $1, since that is what it's usage looks like from wherever `check_exec_0` is called. This issue due to ${$1} caused all function calls to give error in `find_str_or_fail` line, and so no test runs completely. But 'perf test "perf script task-analyzer tests"' wrongly reports that tests passed with the status OK, which is wrong considering the tests didn't even run completely Fixes: e8478b84d6ba9ccf ("perf test: add new task-analyzer tests") Signed-off-by: Aditya Gupta <adityag@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Athira Rajeev <atrajeev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Kajol Jain <kjain@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Disha Goel <disgoel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: John Garry <john.g.garry@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Petar Gligoric <petar.gligoric@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@xxxxxxx> Cc: linuxppc-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230613164145.50488-16-atrajeev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> diff --git a/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_task_analyzer.sh b/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_task_analyzer.sh index a98e4ab66040e..6b3343234a6b2 100755 --- a/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_task_analyzer.sh +++ b/tools/perf/tests/shell/test_task_analyzer.sh @@ -31,7 +31,7 @@ report() { check_exec_0() { if [ $? != 0 ]; then - report 1 "invokation of ${$1} command failed" + report 1 "invocation of $1 command failed" fi }
