Subject[PATCH v2 5/6] perf/x86/intel/pt: Use extended error reporting in event initialization
Date
Event attribute validation is one of the biggest sources of EINVALs around
perf_event_open() syscall. This patch annotates error checks with extended
error reporting macros to provide the user with more details on what they
are doing wrong.
