Hi All,
I am verifying all perf tests on Ubuntu-16 x86-64 platform using the
kernel version 4.9.20.
I have installed several others packages including: clang, llvm
But, when I run 'perf test' I get some FAILURE.
Specially, 'perf test LLVM' is failing.
Please check the below error logs:
----------------------------------------------------
# perf test LLVM
35: Test LLVM searching and compiling :
35.1: Basic BPF llvm compiling test : FAILED!
35.2: Test kbuild searching : Skip
35.3: Compile source for BPF prologue generation test : Skip
35.4: Compile source for BPF relocation test : Skip

When I run with -v I get this:

# perf test -v LLVM

Basic BPF LLVM compiling test is failing.
It reports that bpf could not able to read the kernel version from uname.
Is it because of this that 'perf test LLVM' is failing ?
My uname says:
4.9-xxxx-amd-x86-64
'perf test LLVM' requires a well formed uname string (%d.%d.%d). Please see
tools/perf/fetch_kernel_version . If your distro uses another method to
report
kernel version number (from your uname string, sublevel can't be
determined),
please help us improve that function like what we have done for ubuntu
(checking /proc/version_signature).
My kernel version is: 4.9.20 (from Makefile)
So, I dont think there is any problem with kernel version.
If any body have come across this problem please let me know how to
resolve this issue.
Thank You!

Pintu
