Hi,
This is a small patch series for preparation of the die removal. I added some error code to be used for pevent_parse_event() and _strerror function much like the perf target does.
I don't like the name 'pevent' but since it's a part of the API so I used it for the name.
This can eliminate a few of die() and do_warning() but will lose some details on the error message - i.e. event name. I couldn't think of a way that doesn't lose such info after returning from the function. But I guess we might get the info from the context.
Patch 01 is independent and can be applied separately.
Any comments are welcome.
Thanks, Namhyung
