[PATCH v1 06/10] perf, tools, report: Print better message for JITed code
From: Andi Kleen
Date: Mon Mar 11 2019 - 16:25:14 EST
From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The message about missing /tmp/perf-* for JITed code is quite confusing
to users. Add a better error message, but only print it once.
