Subject: tests: Use session discarded counter to validate blocking test
X-Git-Url: http://git.liburcu.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8e023ed42dff12632a5096a3b2d6c25d144bdbfb;hp=8e023ed42dff12632a5096a3b2d6c25d144bdbfb;p=lttng-tools.git

tests: Use session discarded counter to validate blocking test

Motivation
==========

On my development machine, the block test takes about 75s to complete,
with the majority of the time being used in the infinite blocking
test.

Solution
========

Using the discarded counter provided by `lttng list SESSION`, the test
no longer spends time reading and processing the ~1G of traces with
babeltrace2. This reduces the run time of the entire suite from 75s to
about 15s.

Known drawbacks
===============

There's no longer a validation that the trace files written to disk
are parseable by a CTF reader.
