| |
Parsing the CSV or text output of perf stat can be problematic when new output is added (columns in CSV format). JSON names values and simplifies the job of parsing. Add a JSON output option to perf-stat then add unit test that parses and validates the output.
This is a resend of two v2 patches: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210813220754.2104922-1-cjense@google.com/ https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210813220936.2105426-1-cjense@google.com/ with a few formatting changes and improvements to the linter.
The CSV test/linter is also added to ensure that CSV output doesn't regress: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210813192108.2087512-1-cjense@google.com/
v3. There is some tidy up of CSV code including a potential memory over run in the os.nfields set up caught by sanitizers. To facilitate this an AGGR_MAX value is added. v3 also adds the CSV testing.
v2. Fixes the system wide no aggregation test to not run if the paranoia is wrong. It also makes the counter-value check handle the "<not counted>" and "<not supported>" cases.
