perf test: Change to use bash for daemon test
When executing the daemon test on Arm64 and x86 with Debian (Buster) distro, both skip the test case with the log: # ./perf test -v 76 76: daemon operations : --- start --- test child forked, pid 11687 test daemon list trap: SIGINT: bad trap ./tests/shell/daemon.sh: 173: local: cpu-clock: bad variable name test child finished with -2 ---- end ---- daemon operations: Skip So the error happens for the variable expansion when use local variable in the shell script. Since Debian Buster uses dash but not bash as non-interactive shell, when execute the daemon testing, it hits a known issue for dash which was reported [1]. To resolve this issue, one option is to add double quotes for all local variables assignment, so need to change the code from: local line=`perf daemon --config ${config} -x: | head -2 | tail -1` ... to: local line="`perf daemon --config ${config} -x: | head -2 | tail -1`" But the testing script has bunch of local variables, this leads to big changes for whole script. On the other hand, the testing script asks to use the "local" feature which is bash-specific, so this patch explicitly uses "#!/bin/bash" to ensure running the script with bash. After: # ./perf test -v 76 76: daemon operations : --- start --- test child forked, pid 11329 test daemon list test daemon reconfig test daemon stop test daemon signal signal 12 sent to session 'test [11596]' signal 12 sent to session 'test [11596]' test daemon ping test daemon lock test child finished with 0 ---- end ---- daemon operations: Ok [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dash/+bug/139097 Fixes: 2291bb91 ("perf tests: Add daemon 'list' command test") Signed-off-by: Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210320104554.529213-1-leo.yan@linaro.orgSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
