[PATCH 2/3] perf test: Introduce '-w --list' to list the available workloads
Posted by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 1 year, 3 months ago 
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Using it:

  $ perf test -w noplop
  No workload found: noplop
  $
  $ perf test -w
   Error: switch `w' requires a value
   Usage: perf test [<options>] [{list <test-name-fragment>|[<test-name-fragments>|<test-numbers>]}]

      -w, --workload <work>
                            workload to run for testing, use '--list-workloads' to list the available ones.
  $
  $ perf test --list-workloads
  noploop
  thloop
  leafloop
  sqrtloop
  brstack
  datasym
  landlock
  $

Would be good at some point to have a description in 'struct test_workload'.

Hi Arnaldo,

The commit subject line should be changed to --list-workloads too.

Thanks,
Namhyung
