One possible improvement is to check if debugging info is available in
the traced program and check if -fnoomit-frame-pointer is present:
⬢[acme@toolbox perf]$ readelf -wi ~/bin/perf | grep DW_AT_producer -m1
<d> DW_AT_producer : (indirect string, offset: 0x6627): GNU C99 11.2.1 20220127 (Red Hat 11.2.1-9) -mtune=generic -march=x86-64 -ggdb3 -O6 -std=gnu99 -fno-omit-frame-pointer -funwind-tables -fstack-protector-all
⬢[acme@toolbox perf]$
If debugging info is available and -fno-omit-frame-pointer isn't in the
DW_AT_producer string, then we can print a flashing warning and even
don't use the stack traces.
That or some other more robust method to detect that frame pointers are
valid.

Since this is in the documentation, I think we should have an #else
clause and state that --off-cpu needs building with some specific make
command line.

But at this point the evsel was left in the evlist? Shouldn't we start
it all by trying to allocate this string and don't bother to call
evsel__new() on failure, etc?

Don't we have some evlist__find_evsel function?
