4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit f7fa827f5f432a0b1f34e10fc49da93aeef9f817 ]
For events we provide specific error message we need to set error column
index, PMU parser is missing that, adding it.
Before:
$ perf stat -e cycles,krava/cycles/ kill
event syntax error: 'cycles,krava/cycles/'
\___ Cannot find PMU `krava'. Missing kernel support?
After:
$ perf stat -e cycles,krava/cycles/ kill
event syntax error: 'cycles,krava/cycles/'
\___ Cannot find PMU `krava'. Missing kernel support?
