2022-12-14perf evlist: Remove group option.Ian Rogers1-2/+0
The group option predates grouping events using curly braces added in commit 89efb029502d7f2d ("perf tools: Add support to parse event group syntax"). The --group option was retained for legacy support (in August 2012) but keeping it adds complexity.

2013-11-01perf test: Update command line callchain attribute testsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-3/+3
The "struct perf_event_attr setup" entry in 'perf test' is in fact a series of tests that will exec the tools, passing different sets of command line arguments to then intercept the sys_perf_event_open syscall, in user space, to check that the perf_event_attr->sample_type and other feature request bits are setup as expected. We recently restored the callchain requesting command line argument, -g, to not require a parameter ("dwarf" or "fp"), instead using a default ("fp" for now) and making the long option variant, --call-chain, be the one to be used when a different callchain collection method is preferred. The "struct perf_event_attr setup" test failed because we forgot to update the tests involving callchains, not switching from, '-g dwarf' to '--call-chain dwarf', making 'perf test' detect it: [root@sandy ~]# perf test -v 13 13: struct perf_event_attr setup : --- start --- running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-basic' running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-branch-any' <SNIP> running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-graph-default' running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-graph-dwarf' expected sample_type=12583, got 295 expected exclude_callchain_user=1, got 0 expected sample_stack_user=8192, got 0 FAILED '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-graph-dwarf' - match failure ---- end ---- struct perf_event_attr setup: FAILED! [root@sandy ~]# Fix all of them now to use --call-chain when explicitely specifying a method. There is still work to do, as '-g fp', for instance, passed without problems. In that case 'perf test' saw no problems as the intercepted syscall got the bits as expected, i.e. the default is 'fp', but the fact that 'fp' may be an existing program and the specified workload would then be passed as a parameter to it is an usability problem that needs fixing. Next merge window tho.
