Subject: [PATCH -tip] perf_counter tools: fix verbose for perf stat
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2009 17:12:49 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1245757369.3776.1.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Error message should use stderr for verbose otherwise message will be lost for
$ ./perf stat -v <cmd> > /dev/null
For example on AMD bus-cycles event is not available so now it looks like:
$ ./perf stat -v -e bus-cycles ls > /dev/null
Error: counter 0, sys_perf_counter_open() syscall returned with -1 (Invalid argument)
Performance counter stats for 'ls':
<not counted> bus-cycles
0.006765877 seconds time elapsed.
