From: Kefeng Wang <[email protected]>
On old perf, when using 'perf probe -d' to delete an inexistent event,
it returns errno, eg,
-bash-4.3# perf probe -d xxx || echo $?
Info: Event "*:xxx" does not exist.
Error: Failed to delete events.
255
But now perf_del_probe_events() will always set ret = 0, different from
previous del_perf_probe_events(). After this, it returns errno again,
eg,
-bash-4.3# ./perf probe -d xxx || echo $?
"xxx" does not hit any event.
Error: Failed to delete events.
254
And it is more appropriate to return -ENOENT instead of -EPERM.
