perf parse-regs: Improve error output when faced with unknown register name
Add quotes around the register name and suggest using 'perf record -I?' to get the list of available registers. Before: # perf record -Idi,xmm20,xmm1 Warning: unknown register xmm20, check man page Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -I, --intr-regs[=<any register>] sample selected machine registers on interrupt, use -I ? to list register names # # perf record -Idi,xmm20,xmm1 Warning: unknown register "xmm20", check man page or run "perf record -I?" Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -I, --intr-regs[=<any register>] sample selected machine registers on interrupt, use -I ? to list register names # Cc: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <[email protected]> Cc: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Kan Liang <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Stephane Eranian <[email protected]> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
