Subject: [PATCH 4.9 16/47] objtool: Improve error message for bad file argument
Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2018 09:45:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180122083926.732068365@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180122083925.568134913@linuxfoundation.org>

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>

commit 385d11b152c4eb638eeb769edcb3249533bb9a00 upstream.

If a nonexistent file is supplied to objtool, it complains with a
non-helpful error:

  open: No such file or directory

Improve it to:

  objtool: Can't open 'foo': No such file or directory
