[PATCH 04/24] perf tools: Just pr_debug() about not being able to read cacheline_size

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Fri Jul 15 2016 - 16:51:33 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

So far the cacheline_size is only useful for the "dcacheline" --sort
order, i.e. if that is not used, which is the norm, then the user
shouldn't care that he is running this, say, on an Android system where
sysconf(_SC_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE) and the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index0/coherency_line_size sysfs file
isn't available.

An upcoming patch will emit an warning only for "--sort ...,dcacheline,...".
