    perf tools: Check maximum frequency rate for record/top · 714647bd
    Jiri Olsa 提交于
    Adding the check for maximum allowed frequency rate defined in following
    file:
    
      /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
    
    When we cross the maximum value we fail and display detailed error
    message with advise.
    
      $ perf record -F 3000 ls
      Maximum frequency rate (2000) reached.
      Please use -F freq option with lower value or consider
      tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
    
    In case user does not specify the frequency and the default value cross
    the maximum, we display warning and set the frequency value to the
    current maximum.
    
      $ perf record ls
      Lowering default frequency rate to 2000.
      Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
    
    Same messages are used for 'perf top'.
