Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] trace-cmd: Remove the die() call from read_proc()
Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2018 21:53:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180116195343.12800-3-vladislav.valtchev@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180116195343.12800-1-vladislav.valtchev@gmail.com>

As trace-stack.c's read_proc() function is going to be used by trace-cmd stat,
we don't want it to make the program die in case something went wrong.
Therefore, this simple patch makes read_proc() to just return -1 in case the
proc file was empty or read() failed with an error, instead of using die().
