[ Upstream commit 3440fe2790aa3d13530260af6033533b18959aee ]
Commit d78ada4a767 ("perf tests attr: Do not store failed events") does not create an event file in the /tmp directory when the perf_open_event() system call failed.
This can lead to a situation where not /tmp/event-xx-yy-zz result file exists at all (for example on a s390x virtual machine environment) where no CPUMF hardware is available.
The following command then fails with a python call back chain instead of printing failure:
[root@s8360046 perf]# /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ \ -p ./perf -v -ttest-stat-basic running './tests/attr//test-stat-basic' Traceback (most recent call last): File "./tests/attr.py", line 379, in <module> main() File "./tests/attr.py", line 370, in main run_tests(options) File "./tests/attr.py", line 311, in run_tests Test(f, options).run() File "./tests/attr.py", line 300, in run self.compare(self.expect, self.result) File "./tests/attr.py", line 248, in compare exp_event.diff(res_event) UnboundLocalError: local variable 'res_event' referenced before assignment [root@s8360046 perf]#
This patch catches this pitfall and prints an error message instead:
