perf tools: Enhance parsing events tracepoint error output
Enhancing parsing events tracepoint error output. Adding
more verbose output when the tracepoint is not found or
the tracing event path cannot be access.
$ sudo perf record -e sched:sched_krava ls
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_krava'
\___ unknown tracepoint
Error: File /sys/kernel/debug/tracing//tracing/events/sched/sched_krava not found.
Hint: Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to enable this feature?.
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
...
$ perf record -e sched:sched_krava ls
event syntax error: 'sched:sched_krava'
\___ can't access trace events
Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing//tracing/events/sched/sched_krava
Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
