to avoid posting bad data, we need to not post results to graphserver and perfherder, just finish the job.
Hi Joel, could you please elaborate what is needed for this project so we can have a contributor look at this? Thanks!
this would be a talos specific bug to work on, when we run talos tests we print out specific data to the log file, specifically PERFHERDER_DATA, then we also post data to graph server.  When we run with the --spsProfile option, we do not want data going to any of the official servers, even on try branches as it could confuse developers about a false regression.

talos code is here;
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=path%3Atesting%2Ftalos%2Ftalos&redirect=true&case=false

I would view this similar to the --develop flag, that is something which prevents posting data at the end.

> I don't understand this here

The intention here is to only submit results online when not in --develop mode and not profiling; if either of those flags is on then only record results locally
there are a few cases where we don't want to upload:
1) --develop
2) --spsProfile (can be on try without --develop)
3) --develop and --spsProfile

and 1 case where we do want to upload:
1) no --develop, no --spsProfile

I think your case support what I want!

Now running with profiling on, causes an error on try:

PERFHERDER_DATA was seen 0 times, expected 1.
# TBPL WARNING # 

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=e020f7016cdd&selectedJob=20751031
oh crap, I forgot about that- maybe we can have an empty PERFHERDER_DATA: {} structure?

No, that'll violate the perfherder schema and generate an error. A few options occur to me:

1. Make the talos output parser intelligent enough to know about this case. http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/mozharness/mozharness/mozilla/testing/talos.py#370
2. Add an "ignore" option to the perfherder schema and do not actually ingest the data if it is set to "true".

I think (1) is probably better, if we can make it happen. It seems weird to put an artifact in the log if we're not actually going to use it.

would we then hack the mozharness script to look for spsprofile and then not expect perfherder_data?

thanks for the updated code, this looks like it should ignore the failure with spsprofile enabled.

lol yup, looks great!

So running on try with --spsProfile works fine, PERFHERDER_DATA is not output and is no longer expected:

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=c905b9d886ee

However running on try without profiling turned on is now failing, with "PERFHERDER_DATA was seen 0 times, expected 1.":

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=216d5b0ad557

:wlach, is there something I have missed here (must be)? If you have a minute to have a look that'd be great, thanks!

Sorry I missed this earlier (it was an earlier change that was incorrect, and I didn't look at it because of reviewboard), it looks like you're unconditionally NOT printing PERFHERDER_DATA, which isn't going to work (since perfherder relies on this to generate numbers). 

You need to pass some kind of option to Talos to tell it not to output PERFHERDER_DATA *if and only if* sps profiling is enabled (or some equivalent)... looking at the bug history it looks like you might have actually done this already but it somehow got lost?

This looks fine, you should make sure that PERFHERDER_DATA doesn't get printed when sps profiling is enabled on try (the actual purpose of this change) before landing. :P

Confirmed on try that PERFHERDER_DATA is not printed when spsProfiling is enabled:

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=ecd17ede248c
Also confirmed on try that when spsProfiling is NOT enabled, PERFHERDER_DATA IS still printed:

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=f70b15cc26d6

Already have the r+ so going to land.
