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/20151020151255.GF5119@kernel.org
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.
