Subject: perf evsel: Add per-thread warning for EOPNOTSUPP open failues
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f0869f31562bde2ed9131665f8f76ef7a3983383;p=users%2Fjedix%2Flinux-maple.git

perf evsel: Add per-thread warning for EOPNOTSUPP open failues

The mrvl_ddr_pmu will return EOPNOTSUPP if opened in per-thread
mode. Give a warning for this similar to EINVAL.

Doing this better supports metric testing with limited permissions when
the mrvl_ddr_pmu is present, as the failure to open causes the test to
skip and not fail.
