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, --verbose Be more verbose. -S, --sequential Run tests one after the other, this is the default mode. -p, --parallel Run tests in parallel, speeds up the whole process but is not safe with the current infrastructure, where some tests that compete for some resources, for instance, perf probe tests that add/remove probes or clean all probes, etc. -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.
