perf test: Auto bump rlimit(MEMLOCK) for BPF test sake I noticed that the 'perf test bpf' was failing: # perf test bpf 41: BPF filter : 41.1: Basic BPF filtering : Skip 41.2: BPF pinning : Skip 41.3: BPF prologue generation : Skip 41.4: BPF relocation checker : Skip # ulimit -l 64 # Using verbose mode we get just a line bout -EPERF being returned from libbpf's bpf_load_program_xattr(), that ends up being used in 'perf test bpf' initial program loading capability query: Missing basic BPF support, skip this test: Operation not permitted Not that informative, but on a separate problem when creating BPF maps bumping rlimit(MEMLOCK) helped, so I tried it here as well, works: # ulimit -l 128 # perf test bpf 41: BPF filter : 41.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok 41.2: BPF pinning : Ok 41.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok 41.4: BPF relocation checker : Ok # So use the recently added rlimit__bump_memlock() helper: # ulimit -l 64 # perf test bpf 41: BPF filter : 41.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok 41.2: BPF pinning : Ok 41.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok 41.4: BPF relocation checker : Ok # ulimit -l 64 # I.e. the bumping of memlock is restricted to the 'perf test' instance, not changing the global value.
