CoreSight might be not available, in such case, skip the tests.

If using parallel threads to collect data, perf record needs at least 6 fds
per CPU. (one for sys_perf_event_open, four for pipe msg and ack of the
pipe, see record__thread_data_open_pipes(), and one for open perf.data.XXX)
For an environment with more than 100 cores, if perf record uses both
`-a` and `--threads` options, it is easy to exceed the upper limit of the
file descriptor number, when we run out of them try to increase the limits.
Before:
$ ulimit -n
1024
$ lscpu | grep 'On-line CPU(s)'
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-159
$ perf record --threads -a sleep 1
Failed to create data directory: Too many open files
After:
$ ulimit -n
1024
$ lscpu | grep 'On-line CPU(s)'
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-159
$ perf record --threads -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.394 MB perf.data (1576 samples) ]

The CPI_STALL_RATIO metric group can be used to present the high
level CPI stall breakdown metrics in powerpc, which will show:
- DISPATCH_STALL_CPI ( Dispatch stall cycles per insn )
- ISSUE_STALL_CPI ( Issue stall cycles per insn )
- EXECUTION_STALL_CPI ( Execution stall cycles per insn )
- COMPLETION_STALL_CPI ( Completion stall cycles per insn )
Commit cf26e043c2a9 ("perf vendor events power10: Add JSON
metric events to present CPI stall cycles in powerpc)" which added
the CPI_STALL_RATIO metric group, also modified
the PMC value used in PM_RUN_INST_CMPL event from PMC4 to PMC5,
to avoid multiplexing of events.
But that got revert in recent changes. Fix this issue by changing
back the PMC value used in PM_RUN_INST_CMPL to PMC5.
Result with the fix:
./perf stat --metric-no-group -M CPI_STALL_RATIO <workload>
Performance counter stats for 'workload':
68,745,426 PM_CMPL_STALL # 0.21 COMPLETION_STALL_CPI
7,692,827 PM_ISSUE_STALL # 0.02 ISSUE_STALL_CPI
322,638,223 PM_RUN_INST_CMPL # 0.05 DISPATCH_STALL_CPI

16,858,553 PM_DISP_STALL_CYC
153,880,133 PM_EXEC_STALL

"--metric-no-group" is used for forcing PM_RUN_INST_CMPL to be scheduled
in all group for more accuracy.

Perf test case 111 Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname
fails on s390. This is caused by a failing function
bpf_probe_read() in file util/bpf_skel/augmented_raw_syscalls.bpf.c.
The root cause is the lookup by address. Function bpf_probe_read()
is used. This function works only for architectures
with ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE.
On s390 is not possible to determine from the address to which
address space the address belongs to (user or kernel space).
Replace bpf_probe_read() by bpf_probe_read_kernel()
and bpf_probe_read_str() by bpf_probe_read_user_str() to
explicity specify the address space the address refers to.
