Athira Rajeev 34266f904a perf test bpf: Skip test if kernel-debuginfo is not present
Perf BPF filter test fails in environment where "kernel-debuginfo"
is not installed.

Test failure logs:

  <<>>
  42: BPF filter                            :
  42.1: Basic BPF filtering                 : Ok
  42.2: BPF pinning                         : Ok
  42.3: BPF prologue generation             : FAILED!
  <<>>

Enabling verbose option provided debug logs, which says debuginfo
needs to be installed. Snippet of verbose logs:

  <<>>
  42.3: BPF prologue generation                                       :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 28218
  <<>>
  Rebuild with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y, or install an appropriate debuginfo
  package.
  bpf_probe: failed to convert perf probe events
  Failed to add events selected by BPF
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  BPF filter subtest 3: FAILED!
  <<>>

Here the subtest "BPF prologue generation" failed and logs shows
debuginfo is needed. After installing kernel-debuginfo package, testcase
passes.

The "BPF prologue generation" subtest failed because, the do_test()
returns TEST_FAIL without checking the error type returned by
parse_events_load_bpf_obj().

parse_events_load_bpf_obj() can also return error of type -ENODATA
incase kernel-debuginfo package is not installed. Fix this by adding
check for -ENODATA error.

Test result after the patch changes:

Test failure logs:

  <<>>
  42: BPF filter                 :
  42.1: Basic BPF filtering      : Ok
  42.2: BPF pinning              : Ok
  42.3: BPF prologue generation  : Skip (clang/debuginfo isn't installed or environment missing BPF support)
  <<>>

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
