Subject: [PATCH 11/17] perf evswitch: Add hint when not finding specified on/off events
Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2019 17:16:47 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190816201653.19332-12-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190816201653.19332-1-acme@kernel.org>
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
If the user specifies a on or off switch event and it isn't in the
perf.data file, provide a hint about how to see the events in the
perf.data evlist:
# perf script --switch-on=syscall:sys_enter_nanosleep --switch-off=syscalls:sys_exit_nanosleep
ERROR: event_on event not found (syscall:sys_enter_nanosleep)
HINT: use 'perf evlist' to see the available event names
