    perf trace: Validate syscall list passed via -e argument · d0cc439b
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
    The 'trace' tool was accepting any names passed and just looking if
    syscalls returned via the raw_syscalls:* tracepoints were in that list,
    leading to it accepting perf events and then never finding any, as those
    are not valid syscall names, confusing users.
    
    Fix it by checking each entry in the list using audit_name_to_syscall,
    telling the user which entries are invalid and suggesting where to look
    for valid syscall names.
    
    E.g:
    
      [root@zoo ~]# trace -e open,foo,bar,close,baz
      Error: Invalid syscall bar, baz, foo
      Hint:	 try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
      Hint:	 and: 'man syscalls'
      [root@zoo ~]#
