Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Fix misleading add event pmu debug message
Date: Mon, 11 Apr 2022 09:17:58 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220411061758.2458417-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com> (raw)

Fix incorrect debug message:

   Attempting to add event pmu 'intel_pt' with '' that may result in
   non-fatal errors

which always appears with perf record -vv and intel_pt e.g.

    perf record -vv -e intel_pt//u uname

The message is incorrect because there will never be non-fatal errors.

Suppress the message if the pmu is 'selectable' i.e. meant to be selected
directly as an event.

Fixes: 4ac22b484d4c79 ("perf parse-events: Make add PMU verbose output clearer")
