2f5d370dec perf test: Change all remaining #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash
There are 43 instances of posix shell tests and 35 instances of bash. To
give us a single consistent language for testing in, replace
all #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash. Common sources that are included in both
different shells will now work as expected. And we no longer have to fix
up bashisms that appear to work when someone's system has sh symlinked
to bash, but don't work on other systems that have both shells
installed.

Although we could have chosen sh, it's not backwards compatible so it
wouldn't be possible to bulk convert without re-writing the existing
bash tests.

Choosing bash also gives us some nicer features including 'local'
variable definitions and regexes in if statements that are already
widely used in the tests.

It's not expected that there are any users with only sh available due to
the large number of bash tests that exist.

Discussed in relation to running shellcheck here:

92b664dcef perf test probe_vfs_getname: Skip if no suitable line detected
In some cases when calling function add_probe_vfs_getname, line number
can't be detected by 'perf probe -L getname_flags':

  78         atomic_set(&result->refcnt, 1);

	     // one of the following lines should have line number
	     // but sometimes it does not because of optimization
	     result->uptr = filename;
             result->aname = NULL;

  81         audit_getname(result);

To prevent false failures, skip the affected tests if no suitable line
numbers can be detected.

3662f82f16 perf test: Speed up some tests using perf list
On my system, perf list is very slow to print the whole events.  I think
there's a performance issue in SDT and uprobes event listing.  I noticed
this issue while running perf test on x86 but it takes long to check
some CoreSight event which should be skipped quickly.

Anyway, some test uses perf list to check whether the required event is
available before running the test.  The perf list command can take an
argument to specify event class or (glob) pattern.  But glob pattern is
only to suppress output for unmatched ones after checking all events.

In this case, specifying event class is better to reduce the number of
events it checks and to avoid buggy subsystems entirely.

No functional changes intended.

6f769c3458 perf tests trace+probe_vfs_getname.sh: Accept quotes surrounding the filename
With augmented_raw_syscalls transformed into a BPF skel made the output have a "
around the filenames, which is not what the old perf probe vfs_getname
method of obtaining filenames did, so accept the augmented way, with the
quotes.

At this point probably removing all the logic for the vfs_getname method
is in order, will do it at some point.

For now lets accept with/without quotes and make that test pass.

818448e9cf perf tools: Use "grep -E" instead of "egrep"
The latest version of grep claims the egrep is now obsolete so the build
now contains warnings that look like:

	egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E

fix this up by moving the related file to use "grep -E" instead.

  sed -i "s/egrep/grep -E/g" `grep egrep -rwl tools/perf`

Here are the steps to install the latest grep:

  wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-3.8.tar.gz
  tar xf grep-3.8.tar.gz
  cd grep-3.8 && ./configure && make
  sudo make install

47dce51acc perf tools: Add support to read build id from compressed elf

Shutting down stderr output of perf list in the shell test:

because with decompression code in the place we the
filename__read_build_id function is more verbose in case
of error and the test did not account for that.

Since the first line was used as a test identification, it needs to be
skipped by shell_test__description() function now.

Further notes from Hendrik:

It might be worth to note that adding the shebang is necessary to spot
them as scripts.

Using /bin/sh looks fine to.  Just briefly checked whether the scripts
contains some bash-specifics, which is not the case.

69b5c95340 perf test shell: Fix check open filename arg using 'perf trace'
Commit f231af789b ("perf test shell: Fix check open filename arg using
'perf trace' on s390x") added an exception for s390x to use openat()
instead of open() in the test that intercepts a open syscall to look for
the filename argument as obtained by the vfs_getname 'perf probe' it
puts in place at the getname_flags kernel function.

Its not just s390x that uses openat() instead of open(), so use 'perf
list' to look for the syscall:sys_enter_open(at)? present in the system
being tested instead of checking if the system is s390x.

In fact Namhyung pointed out that glibc 2.26 changed this behaviour, as
described in https://lwn.net/Articles/738694/, so systems where glibc is
>= 2.26 will need this patch for this test to work, which already took
place in some distros for architectures such as s390x, while Fedora 26
x86_64 is at glibc 2.25, i.e. still uses open().

f231af789b perf test shell: Fix check open filename arg using 'perf trace' on s390x
This 'perf test' case fails on s390x. The 'touch' command on s390x uses
the 'openat' system call to open the file named on the command line:

[root@s35lp76 perf]# perf probe -l
  probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:72@fs/namei.c with pathname)
[root@s35lp76 perf]# perf trace -e open touch /tmp/abc
     0.400 ( 0.015 ms): touch/27542 open(filename:
		/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
[root@s35lp76 perf]#

There is no 'open' system call for file '/tmp/abc'. Instead the 'openat'
system call is used:

[root@s35lp76 perf]# strace touch /tmp/abc
    execve("/usr/bin/touch", ["touch", "/tmp/abc"], 0x3ffd547ec98
			/* 30 vars */) = 0
    [...]
    openat(AT_FDCWD, "/tmp/abc", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3
    [...]

On s390x the 'egrep' command does not find a matching pattern and
returns an error.

Fix this for s390x create a platform dependent command line to enable
the 'perf probe' call to listen to the 'openat' system call and get the
expected output.

1ad5a18269 perf test shell: Check if 'perf probe' is available, skip tests if not
Add a library function that checks if 'perf probe' is built into the
tool being tested, skipping tests that need it.

Testing it on a system after removing the library needed to build
'probe' as a perf subcommand:

  # perf test ping vfs_getname
  59: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Skip
  60: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       : Skip
  61: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Skip
  62: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Skip
  # perf probe
  perf: 'probe' is not a perf-command. See 'perf --help'.
  #

Now reinstalling elfutils-libelf-devel on this Fedora 26 system to
rebuild perf and then retest this:

  # perf test ping vfs_getname
  60: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Ok
  61: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       : Ok
  62: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok
  63: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames   : Ok

e498f336d6 perf test shell: Add test using vfs_getname + 'perf trace'
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
