Subject: [PATCH 4/9] perf tools: Fix pmu events parsing rule
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2018 11:08:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180423090823.32309-5-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180423090823.32309-1-jolsa@kernel.org>

Currently all the event parsing fails end up
in the event_pmu rule, and display misleading
help like:

  $ perf stat -e inst kill
  event syntax error: 'inst'
                       \___ Cannot find PMU `inst'. Missing kernel support?
  ...

The reason is that the event_pmu is too strong
and match also single string. Changing it to
force the '/' separators to be part of the rule,
and getting the proper error now:

  $ perf stat -e inst kill
  event syntax error: 'inst'
                       \___ parser error
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
  ...
