Test case 71 'Convert perf time to TSC' is not supported on s390.
Subtest 71.1 is skipped with the correct message, but subtest 71.2 is
not skipped and fails.
The root cause is function evlist__open() called from
test__perf_time_to_tsc(). evlist__open() returns -ENOENT because the
event cycles:u is not supported by the selected PMU, for example
platform s390 on z/VM or an x86_64 virtual machine.
The PMU driver returns -ENOENT in this case. This error is leads to the
failure.
Fix this by returning TEST_SKIP on -ENOENT.
Output before:
71: Convert perf time to TSC:
71.1: TSC support: Skip (This architecture does not support)
71.2: Perf time to TSC: FAILED!
Output after:
71: Convert perf time to TSC:
71.1: TSC support: Skip (This architecture does not support)
71.2: Perf time to TSC: Skip (perf_read_tsc_conversion is not supported)
This also happens on an x86_64 virtual machine:
# uname -m
x86_64
$ ./perf test -F 71
71: Convert perf time to TSC :
71.1: TSC support : Ok
71.2: Perf time to TSC : FAILED!
$
Committer testing:
Continues to work on x86_64:
$ perf test 71
71: Convert perf time to TSC :
71.1: TSC support : Ok
71.2: Perf time to TSC : Ok
$

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
