    perf tests: Skip branch stack sampling test if brstack_bench symbol is missing · fcfb5a61
    Adrian Hunter authored
    The test "Check branch stack sampling" depends on finding symbol
    brstack_bench (and several others) in perf, and fails if perf has been
    stripped and no debug object is available. In that case, skip the test
    instead.
    
    Example:
    
     Before:
    
      $ strip tools/perf/perf
      $ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -p `realpath tools/perf/perf`
      $ tools/perf/perf test -v 'branch stack sampling'
      112: Check branch stack sampling                                     :
      --- start ---
      test child forked, pid 123741
      Testing user branch stack sampling
      + grep -E -m1 ^brstack_bench\+[^ ]*/brstack_foo\+[^ ]*/IND_CALL/.*$ /tmp/__perf_test.program.5Dz1U/perf.script
      + cleanup
      + rm -rf /tmp/__perf_test.program.5Dz1U
      test child finished with -1
      ---- end ----
      Check branch stack sampling: FAILED!
    
     After:
    
      $ tools/perf/perf test -v 'branch stack sampling'
      112: Check branch stack sampling                                     :
      --- start ---
      test child forked, pid 125157
      perf does not have symbol 'brstack_bench'
      perf is missing symbols - skipping test
      test child finished with -2
      ---- end ----
      Check branch stack sampling: Skip
