tools lib api fs: Store tracing mountpoint for better error message
Storing the actual tracing path mountpoint to display correct error message hint ('Hint:' line). The error hint rediscovers mountpoints, but it could be different from what we actually used in tracing path. Before we'd display debugfs mount even though tracefs was used: $ perf record -e sched:sched_krava ls event syntax error: 'sched:sched_krava' \___ can't access trace events Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_krava Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug' ... After this change, correct mountpoint is displayed: $ perf record -e sched:sched_krava ls event syntax error: 'sched:sched_krava' \___ can't access trace events Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_krava Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing' ...
