The output format you desire is hard to implement, because 'Ok' is printed
by the parent process. We have to find a way to allow child process to pass
'run 'perf test -v LLVM' for ...' to parent, then parent can print it
after 'Ok'.

I change this test as follow:


*Case 1*
When user don't set any [llvm] option in his/her ~/.perfconfig, and 'clang'
is not found in $PATH:

# perf test 'LLVM'
38: Test LLVM searching and compiling                        : (no 
clang, try 'perf test -v LLVM') Skip

and:

# perf test -v 'LLVM'
38: Test LLVM searching and compiling                        :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 163505
ERROR:    unable to find clang.
Hint:    Try to install latest clang/llvm to support BPF. Check your $PATH
...

test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Test LLVM searching and compiling: FAILED!

*Case 2*

If clang can be found or user set something in his/her ~/.perfconfig:
# cat << EOF > ~/.perfconfig
 > [llvm]
 > clang-path = "/usr/bin/false"
 > EOF
# perf test 'LLVM'
38: Test LLVM searching and compiling                        : (use -v 
to see error message) FAILED!

# perf test -v 'LLVM'
38: Test LLVM searching and compiling                        :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 20712
Kernel build dir is set to /lib/modules/3.12.28-4-default/build
set env: KBUILD_DIR=/lib/modules/3.12.28-4-default/build
...

Hint:    Check error message shown above.
          LLVM 3.7 or newer is required. Which can be found from 
http://llvm.org
...
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Test LLVM searching and compiling: FAILED!

*Case 3*
If everything is okay:
# perf test 'LLVM'
38: Test LLVM searching and compiling                        : Ok

Here is the newest pull request:

The following changes since commit 101ef9b4f5c70dbfffa0186102c1014bd81a4ec7:

   bpf tools: Link all bpf objects onto a list (2015-07-13 18:48:17 -0300)

are available in the git repository at:

   https://github.com/WangNan0/linux.git perf/ebpf-for-acme

for you to fetch changes up to a20f387a54aa38c3cae70775273ff9d69a16d0c6:

   perf tools: Support attach BPF program on uprobe events (2015-07-15 
10:39:24 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------

I'll posted a new 'perf tests: Add LLVM test for eBPF on-the-fly 
compiling' by replying
the old one, so you can leave your comment message there if you want.

Thank you.
