    That nicely catches the problem reported by Joel Uckelman in
    http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.perf.user/1016 :
    
      [root@sandy ~]# perf test
       1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
       2: detect open syscall event: Ok
       3: detect open syscall event on all cpus: Ok
       4: read samples using the mmap interface: Ok
       5: parse events tests: Ok
       6: x86 rdpmc test: Ok
       7: Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields: Ok
       8: Test perf pmu format parsing: Ok
       9: Test dso data interface: Ok
      10: roundtrip evsel->name check: FAILED!
    
      [root@sandy ~]# perf test -v 10
