Do you mean this? $ ./perf test bpf 37: Test BPF filter : 37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : Skip To make it pass you need to build BPF compiling environment first. First of all you must be root: $ ./perf test -v bpf 37: Test BPF filter : 37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : --- start --- test child forked, pid 19359 Only root can run BPF test test child finished with -2 ---- end ---- Test BPF filter subtest 0: Skip Then it would tell you how to setup your LLVM environment: $ sudo -s # ./perf test -v bpf 37: Test BPF filter : 37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : --- start --- test child forked, pid 19463 ERROR: unable to find clang. Hint: Try to install latest clang/llvm to support BPF. Check your $PATH and 'clang-path' option in [llvm] section of ~/.perfconfig. LLVM 3.7 or newer is required. Which can be found from http://llvm.org You may want to try git trunk: git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git and git clone http://llvm.org/git/clang.git Or fetch the latest clang/llvm 3.7 from pre-built llvm packages for debian/ubuntu: http://llvm.org/apt If you are using old version of clang, change 'clang-bpf-cmd-template' option in [llvm] section of ~/.perfconfig to: "$CLANG_EXEC $CLANG_OPTIONS $KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS \ -working-directory $WORKING_DIR -c $CLANG_SOURCE \ -emit-llvm -o - | /path/to/llc -march=bpf -filetype=obj -o -" (Replace /path/to/llc with path to your llc) Failed to compile test case: 'Basic BPF llvm compiling test' Unable to get BPF object, fix 'perf test LLVM' first test child finished with -2 ---- end ---- Test BPF filter subtest 0: Skip Set your clang path to ~/.perfconfig # cat ~/.perfconfig [llvm] clang-path = "/opt/llvm-3.7.0/x86_64-oe-linux-clang" Then try 'perf test LLVM', fix all failure: # ./perf test LLVM 35: Test LLVM searching and compiling : 35.1: Basic BPF llvm compiling test : Ok 35.2: Test kbuild searching : Ok 35.3: Compile source for BPF prologue generation test : Ok After that you can try perf test BPF: # ./perf test BPF 37: Test BPF filter : 37.1: Test basic BPF filtering : Ok 37.2: Test BPF prologue generation : Ok Thank you. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
