Subject: [PATCH 1/3] tools/perf: Fix error message
Date: Thu,  2 Oct 2014 17:53:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1412297616-14179-1-git-send-email-sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Sometimes, eg: with a stripped vmlinux, we can open the file but
cannot load any symbols from it. Update error message accordingly
so the users can better understand the error.
