[ Upstream commit30df88a80f] The test case "perf test 'Setup struct perf_event_attr'" is failing. On s390 this output is observed: # ./perf test -Fvvvv 17 17: Setup struct perf_event_attr : --- start --- running './tests/attr/test-stat-C0' Using CPUID IBM,8561,703,T01,3.6,002f .....

Fix this by adjusting the expected value of size.

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.
