Hi All,
I am verifying all perf tests on Ubuntu-16 x86-64 platform using the
kernel version 4.9.20.
I have installed several others packages including: clang, llvm
But, when I run 'perf test' I get some FAILURE.
Specially, 'perf test LLVM' is failing.
Please check the below error logs:
----------------------------------------------------
# perf test LLVM
35: Test LLVM searching and compiling :
35.1: Basic BPF llvm compiling test : FAILED!
35.2: Test kbuild searching : Skip
35.3: Compile source for BPF prologue generation test : Skip
35.4: Compile source for BPF relocation test : Skip
----------------------------------------------------
When I run with -v I get this:
-----------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------
Basic BPF LLVM compiling test is failing.
It reports that bpf could not able to read the kernel version from uname.
Is it because of this that 'perf test LLVM' is failing ?
My uname says:
4.9-xxxx-amd-x86-64
My kernel version is: 4.9.20 (from Makefile)
So, I dont think there is any problem with kernel version.
If any body have come across this problem please let me know how to
resolve this issue.
Thank You!

Pintu

Wang, could you please take a look? I'll be traveling this week, so
probably will not have time for trying to work on this.

Literally 4.9-xxxx? No 3rd number? And why 'xxxx'? (Hint - obfuscating doesn't
help here, it's hard to debug when we don't see the *actual* string.)
Some unames from my various machines:
4.15.0-rc7-next-20180112-dirty (x86_64 laptop)
4.9.35-v7+ (raspberry pi)
4.9.73 (Lede-based router)
3.10.0-229.20.1.el7.x86_64 (RHEL 7.3)
3.0.101-68-default (SLES 11.4)
I'm pretty sure the fact that your uname is only returning 2 numbers
before the '-' is the root cause of your problem.

'perf test LLVM' requires a well formed uname string (%d.%d.%d). Please see
tools/perf/fetch_kernel_version . If your distro uses another method to
report
kernel version number (from your uname string, sublevel can't be
determined),
please help us improve that function like what we have done for ubuntu
(checking /proc/version_signature).

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
Yes it was a sub version issue.
Earlier, while building the kernel I left the SUBLEVEL as blank.
make -j8 bindeb-pkg SUBLEVEL=20
After passing the correct sublevel now the test is working.
But still following are failing:
16: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems : FAILED!
37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : FAILED!
This is the error I get:
16: Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 7637
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named perf
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Try 'import perf' in python, checking link problems: FAILED!
Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)
symsrc__init: cannot get elf header.
Failed to find the path for kernel: Invalid ELF file
bpf_probe: failed to convert perf probe eventsFailed to add events

test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Test BPF filter subtest 1: FAILED!
Thanks,
Pintu
