[ Upstream commit 34266f904abd45731bdade2e92d0536c092ee9bc ]
Perf BPF filter test fails in environment where "kernel-debuginfo"
is not installed.
Test failure logs:
<<>>
42: BPF filter :
42.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
42.2: BPF pinning : Ok
42.3: BPF prologue generation : FAILED!
<<>>
Enabling verbose option provided debug logs, which says debuginfo
needs to be installed. Snippet of verbose logs:
<<>>
42.3: BPF prologue generation :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 28218
<<>>
Rebuild with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y, or install an appropriate debuginfo
package.
bpf_probe: failed to convert perf probe events
Failed to add events selected by BPF
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
BPF filter subtest 3: FAILED!
<<>>
Here the subtest "BPF prologue generation" failed and logs shows
debuginfo is needed. After installing kernel-debuginfo package, testcase
passes.
The "BPF prologue generation" subtest failed because, the do_test()
returns TEST_FAIL without checking the error type returned by
parse_events_load_bpf_obj().
parse_events_load_bpf_obj() can also return error of type -ENODATA
incase kernel-debuginfo package is not installed. Fix this by adding
check for -ENODATA error.
Test result after the patch changes:
Test failure logs:
<<>>
42: BPF filter :
42.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
42.2: BPF pinning : Ok
42.3: BPF prologue generation : Skip (clang/debuginfo isn't installed or environment missing BPF support)
<<>>
