Subject: [PATCH 6/7] perf util: Hint missing file when tool tips fail to load
Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2017 16:35:35 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170413193536.3667-7-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170413193536.3667-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: David Carrillo-Cisneros <davidcc@google.com>

Besides memory allocation failure, tips.txt may fail to load because the
file is not found (a more likely cause).

Communicate that to the user in tips failure warning.
