Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: report PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC probing error once
Date: Sat,  2 Aug 2014 20:13:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1407003202-13672-1-git-send-email-ydroneaud@opteya.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1406908014-8312-1-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org>

In case of failure, unrelated to PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC,
perf_flag_probe() reports the error twice. For example:

  $ perf record ls
  Error:
  perf_event_open(..., PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC) failed with unexpected error 16 (Device or resource busy)
  perf_event_open(..., 0) failed unexpectedly with error 16 (Device or resource busy)
  The PMU counters are busy/taken by another profiler.
  We found oprofile daemon running, please stop it and try again.

This patch changes the function to only report a second
error message when the two calls to perf_even_open(2)
fail with different error codes.
