<content type='text'>
We already only test each kcore map once, but on slow systems
(particularly with network filesystems) even the non-kcore maps are
slow.

The test can test the same objdump output over and over which only wastes
time. Generalize the skipping mechanism to track all DSOs and addresses
so that each section is only tested once.

On a fully loaded ARM Juno (simulating a parallel 'perf test' run) with
a network filesystem, the original runtime is:

  real  1m51.126s
  user  0m19.445s
  sys   1m15.431s

And the new runtime is:

  real  0m48.873s
  user  0m8.031s
  sys   0m32.353s

Committer testing:

  # perf test "code read"
   22: Object code reading          : Ok
  #

When running on a hypervisor the expected IPC metric may be missing as
the events may fail to be read. Don't expect metric output for this
test to avoid it failing.

<id>urn:sha1:33706fb0aa6c2f7eb869a0a9ad569e414ff11375</id>
<content type='text'>
The 'import perf' test needs to set up a path to the python module as
well as to know the python command to invoke.

These are hard coded at build time to be build a directory and the
python used in the build, which is less than desirable.

Avoid the hard coded values by reusing the existing shell script python
setup and determine a potential built python module via the path of the
perf executable.

<content type='text'>
BRBE emits IRQ and ERET branches for branching and returning from
trapped instructions. Add a test that loops on a trapped instruction
(MRS - Read special register) for this.

Extend the expected 'any_call' branches to include FAULT_DATA and
FAULT_INST as these are emitted by BRBE.

Test that SYSCALL type branches are emitted from the expected 'getppid'
symbol. Test that when only 'k' is used, sources addresses are all in
the kernel. Test that no kernel addresses leak by checking for them in
the 'u' test.
