Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo e60770a01b perf test: Allow running just a subset of the available tests
To obtain a list of available tests:

[root@emilia linux]# perf test list
 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms
 2: detect open syscall event
 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus
 4: read samples using the mmap interface
 5: parse events tests
[root@emilia linux]#

To list just a subset:

[root@emilia linux]# perf test list syscall
 2: detect open syscall event
 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus
[root@emilia linux]#

To run a subset:

[root@emilia linux]# perf test detect
 2: detect open syscall event: Ok
 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus: Ok
[root@emilia linux]#

Specific tests can be chosen by number:

[root@emilia linux]# perf test 1 3 parse
 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus: Ok
 5: parse events tests: Ok
[root@emilia linux]#

Now to write more tests!
