NAME

perf-test − Runs sanity tests.

SYNOPSIS

perf test [<options>] [{list <test−name−fragment>|[<test−name−fragments>|<test−numbers>]}]

DESCRIPTION

This command does assorted sanity tests, initially through linked routines but also will look for a directory with more tests in the form of scripts.

To get a list of available tests use perf test list, specifying a test name fragment will show all tests that have it.

To run just specific tests, inform test name fragments or the numbers obtained from perf test list.

OPTIONS

−s, −−skip

Tests to skip (comma separated numeric list).

−v, −vv, −vvv, −−verbose

With a single −v, verbose level 1, only failing test output is displayed. With −vv and higher all test output is shown.

−S, −−sequential

Run all tests one after the other. By default "exclusive" tests are run sequentially, but other tests are run in parallel to speed execution.

−r, −−runs−per−test

Run each test the given number of times, by default once. This option can be useful to determine if a test is flaky.

−F, −−dont−fork

Do not fork child for each test, run all tests within single process, this sets sequential mode.

−−dso

Specify a DSO for the "Symbols" test.

−w, −−workload=

Run a built−in workload, to list them use −−list−workloads, current ones include: noploop, thloop, leafloop, sqrtloop, brstack, datasym and landlock.

Used with the shell script regression tests.

Some accept an extra parameter:

seconds: leafloop, noploop, sqrtloop, thloop
nrloops: brstack

The datasym and landlock workloads don't accept any.

−−list−workloads

List the available workloads to use with −w/−−workload.
