Subject: [PATCH v2] perf/x86: descriptive failure messages for PMU init
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2019 16:30:04 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jpgwojs5q9f.fsf@linux.bootlegged.copy> (raw)


There's a default warning message that gets printed, however,
there are various failure conditions:
 - a msr read can fail
 - a msr write can fail
 - a msr has an unexpected value
 - all msrs have unexpected values (disable PMU)

Lastly, use %llx to silence checkpatch

Signed-off-by: Bandan Das <bsd@redhat.com>

v2:
 Remove virt specific pr_debugs
 Change the default warning message
