perf bpf: Mute libbpf when '-v' not set
According to [1], libbpf should be muted. This patch reset info and warning message level to ensure libbpf doesn't output anything even if error happened. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Committer note: Before: Testing it with an incompatible kernel version in the .c file that generated foo.o: [root@zoo ~]# perf record -e /tmp/foo.o sleep 1 libbpf: load bpf program failed: Invalid argument libbpf: -- BEGIN DUMP LOG --- libbpf: libbpf: -- END LOG -- libbpf: failed to load program 'fork=_do_fork' libbpf: failed to load object '/tmp/foo.o' event syntax error: '/tmp/foo.o' \___ Invalid argument: Are you root and runing a CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL kernel? (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events [root@zoo ~]# After: [root@zoo ~]# perf record -e /tmp/foo.o sleep 1 event syntax error: '/tmp/foo.o' \___ Invalid argument: Are you root and runing a CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL kernel? (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>] or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events [root@zoo ~]# This, BTW, need fixing to emit a proper message by validating the version in the foo.o "version" ELF section against the running kernel, warning the user instead of asking the kernel to load a binary that it will refuse due to unmatching kernel version.
