[PATCH v1] perf test: Be more tolerant of metricgroup failures
Posted by Ian Rogers 1 year, 10 months ago
Previously "set -e" meant any non-zero exit code from perf stat would
cause a test failure. As a non-zero exit happens when there aren't
sufficient permissions, check for this case and make the exit code
2/skip for it.
