perf trace requires root because it needs to use tracepoints and BPF.
Skip those test when it's not run as root.
Before:
$ perf test trace
15: Parse sched tracepoints fields : Skip (permissions)
80: perf ftrace tests : Skip
105: perf trace enum augmentation tests : FAILED!
106: perf trace BTF general tests : FAILED!
107: perf trace exit race : FAILED!
118: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Skip
125: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and synthesized samples: Skip
127: Check Arm SPE trace data recording and synthesized samples : Skip
132: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname : FAILED!
After:
$ perf test trace
15: Parse sched tracepoints fields : Skip (permissions)
80: perf ftrace tests : Skip
105: perf trace enum augmentation tests : Skip
106: perf trace BTF general tests : Skip
107: perf trace exit race : Skip

isn't resolved
The purpose of this test is to test for races in the exit of 'perf
trace' missing the last events, it was failing when the COMM wasn't
resolved either because we missed some PERF_RECORD_COMM or somehow
raced on getting it from procfs.
Add --no-comm to the 'perf trace' command line so that we get a
consistent, pid only output, which allows the test to achieve its goal.
This is the output from
'perf trace --no-comm -e syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group':
0.000 21953 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21955 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21957 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21959 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21961 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21963 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21965 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21967 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21969 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
0.000 21971 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
Now it passes:
root@number:~# perf test "trace exit race"
110: perf trace exit race : Ok
root@number:~#
root@number:~# perf test -v "trace exit race"
110: perf trace exit race : Ok
root@number:~#
If we artificially make it run just 9 times instead of the 10 it runs,
i.e. by manually doing:
trace_shutdown_race() {
for _ in $(seq 9); do
that 9 is $iter, 10 in the patch, we get:
root@number:~# vim ~acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/shell/trace_exit_race.sh
root@number:~# perf test -v "trace exit race"
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 24629
Missing output, expected 10 but only got 9
---- end(-1) ----
110: perf trace exit race : FAILED!
root@number:~#
I.e. 9 'perf trace' calls produced the expected output, the inverse grep
didn't show anything, so the patch provided by Howard for the previous
patch kicks in and shows a more informative message.

If it fails we need to check what was the reason, what were the lines
that didn't match the expected format, so:
root@number:~# perf test -v "trace exit race"
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 2028724
Lines not matching the expected regexp: ' +[0-9]+\.[0-9]+ +true/[0-9]+ syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group\(\)$':
0.000 :2028750/2028750 syscalls:sys_enter_exit_group()
---- end(-1) ----
110: perf trace exit race : FAILED!
root@number:~#
In this case we're not resolving the process COMM for some reason and
fallback to printing just the pid/tid, this will be fixed in a followup
patch.
Howard Chu spotted a problem with single code surrounding a regexp, that
made the test always fail, but since there were some failures when I
tested (COMM not being resolved in some of the results) the end inverse
grep would show some lines and thus didn't notice the single quote
problem.
He also provided a patch to test if less than the number of expected
matches took place but all of them with the expected output, in which
case the inverse grep wouldn't show anything, confusing the tester.

Add a test that checks that trace output is not lost to races. This is
accomplished by tracing the exit_group syscall of "true" multiple times and
checking for correct output.
