perf tools: Disallow PMU events intel_pt and intel_bts until there is support
Disallow PMU events intel_pt and intel_bts until the tools support them. By default any PMU is selectable as an event but until the tools have intel_pt and intel_bts support using them would result in no data being recorded without any indication as to why. Before the change: $ perf record -e intel_bts// sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.008 MB perf.data ] $ perf report --stdio Error: The perf.data file has no samples! After the change: $ perf record -e intel_bts// sleep 1 invalid or unsupported event: 'intel_bts//' Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1432295653-13989-2-git-send-email-adrian.hunter@intel.comSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
