From 2d45ef7033ec90104ae8e4c3996227bdad24dc76 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Mon, 20 May 2019 11:04:08 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf top: Lower message level for failure on synthesizing events for pre-existing BPF programs MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Move it from being a pr_warning() to a pr_debug(). Also capitalize BPF and explain what gets missing when we're not able to synthesize these events: we'll not be able to resolve symbols, etc. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexei Starovoitov Cc: Andrii Nakryiko Cc: Daniel Borkmann Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Luis Cláudio Gonçalves Cc: Martin KaFai Lau Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Song Liu Cc: Wang Nan Cc: Yonghong Song Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-whpnfnw6xtd939odgt9bw9as@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- tools/perf/builtin-top.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-top.c b/tools/perf/builtin-top.c index 31d78d874fc7..6651377fd762 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-top.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-top.c @@ -1215,7 +1215,7 @@ static int __cmd_top(struct perf_top *top) &top->session->machines.host, &top->record_opts); if (ret < 0) - pr_warning("Couldn't synthesize bpf events.\n"); + pr_debug("Couldn't synthesize BPF events: Pre-existing BPF programs won't have symbols resolved.\n"); machine__synthesize_threads(&top->session->machines.host, &opts->target, top->evlist->threads, false,
