Subject: perf script: Show proper message when failed list scripts
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=88ded4d8d94a550624e1827478e13fecf97a7b0a;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

perf script: Show proper message when failed list scripts

Perf shows the usage message when perf scripts folder failed to open,
which misleads users to let them think the command is being mistyped.

This patch shows a proper message and guides users to check the
PERF_EXEC_PATH environment variable in that case.

Before:

  $ perf script --list

  Usage: perf script [<options>]
   or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
   or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]
   or: perf script [<options>] <script> [<record-options>] <command>
   or: perf script [<options>] <top-script> [script-args]

      -l, --list            list available scripts

After:

  $ perf script --list
  open(/home/user/perf-core/scripts) failed.
  Check for "PERF_EXEC_PATH" env to set scripts dir.
