Currently perf ftrace command will select 'function_graph' or 'function'.
So add ftrace.tracer config option to select tracer

Please warn the user for invalid values and either just say that it is
ignoring that setting or return -1 to make perf_config() return that,
then make cmd_ftrace() check the return of perf_config() and bail out if
you're not ignoring the config value.

I think its better to do a: "pr_err()" in that "return -1" branch and
make 'perf ftrace' fail, so that the user can fix its config before
proceeding.



Arnaldo,

I modified this patch as below.

But if setting wrong config value,
existing error message is printed in perf_config().

So output can be printed as follows

1) Two error messages

    # perf ftrace usleep 123456
    Please select function_graph(default)or function to use tracer.
    Error: wrong config key-value pair ftrace.tracer=functionds

2) Or only one error message in perf_config()
(if we don't "pr_err()" in that "return -1" branch)

    # perf ftrace usleep 123456
    Error: wrong config key-value pair ftrace.tracer=functionds


Which do you like better, 1) or 2) ?

Thanks,
Taeung
