[PATCH v2 1/4] perf trace: substitute CAP_SYS_ADMIN with CAP_PERFMON in error message

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Update error message to mention CAP_PERFMON only. CAP_SYS_ADMIN still
works in keeping with user space backward compatibility approach.
