perf stat ignores the unsupported event and continue to count supported
event. But if the unsupported event is group leader, perf tool will
crash. After applying this patch, the unsupported group leader will
error out immediately.
Without this patch:
$ perf stat -x, -e '{node-prefetch-refs,cycles}' -- sleep 1
perf: util/evsel.c:1009: get_group_fd: Assertion `!(fd == -1)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
With this patch:
$ perf stat -x, -e '{node-prefetch-refs,cycles}' -- sleep 1
Error:
The node-prefetch-refs event is not supported.
