The perf probe related tests like probe_vfs_getname.sh which is in "tools/perf/tests/shell" directory have dependency on debuginfo information in the kernel. Currently debuginfo check is handled by skip_if_no_debuginfo function in the file "lib/probe_vfs_getname.sh". skip_if_no_debuginfo function looks for this specific error log from perf probe to skip the testcase:
<<>> Failed to find the path for the kernel|Debuginfo-analysis is not supported <>> But in some case, like this one in powerpc, while running this test, observed error logs is: <<>> The /lib/modules/<version>/build/vmlinux file has no debug information. Rebuild with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y, or install an appropriate debuginfo package. Error: Failed to add events. <<>> Update the skip_if_no_debuginfo function to include the above error, to skip the test in these scenarios too.
