[PATCH 6/6] perf kmem: Show warning when trying to run stat without record

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Tue Apr 21 2015 - 01:00:35 EST


Sometimes one can mistakenly run perf kmem stat without perf kmem
record before or different configuration like recoding --slab and stat
--page. Show a warning message like below to inform user:

# perf kmem stat --page --caller
Not found page events. Have you run 'perf kmem record --page' before?
