Subject: [PATCH] perf test: Fix test_arm_coresight.sh failures on Juno
Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2022 15:05:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221005140508.1537277-1-james.clark@arm.com> (raw)
This test commonly fails on Arm Juno because the instruction interval
is large enough to miss generating any samples for Perf in system-wide
mode.
Fix this by lowering the interval until a comfortable number of Perf
instructions are generated. The test is still quick to run because only
a small amount of trace is gathered.
Before:
sudo ./perf test coresight -vvv
...
Recording trace with system wide mode
