    perf test shell: Add test using vfs_getname + 'perf trace' · e498f336
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
    Uses the 'perf test shell' library to add probe:vfs_getname to the
    system then use it with 'perf trace' using 'touch' to write to a temp
    file, then checks that that was captured by the vfs_getname was used by
    'perf trace', that already handles "probe:vfs_getname" if present, and
    used in the "open" syscall "filename" argument beautifier.
    
    Testing it:
    
      # perf test "trace + vfs_getname"
      61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
      #
    
      # perf test -v "trace + vfs_getname"
      61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname:
      --- start ---
      test child forked, pid 30846
      Added new event:
        probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)
    
      You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
    
      	perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
    
           2.237 ( 0.012 ms): touch/30855 open(filename: /tmp/temporary_file.kmoWQ, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: IRUGO|IWUGO) = 3
      test child finished with 0
      ---- end ----
      Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
