Nope, trying it now I get:

  [root@felicio ~]# perf record -e ./foo.o sleep 1
  libbpf: failed to open ./foo.o: No such file or directory
  bpf: failed to load ./foo.o
  invalid or unsupported event: './foo.o'
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

    -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
  [root@felicio ~]#

Way too much verbosity, I think this should be just:

  [root@felicio ~]# perf record -e ./foo.o sleep 1
  perf: Failed to open ./foo.o: No such file or directory

I.e. Avoid messages coming directly from a library, as you don't know
what kind of UI tools using such library will use, it maybe GTK, for
instance, and then sending stuff to stderr or stdout is inappropriate.

Right, right now this is required, it should not be.

Thanks, I will try checkint the other patches, taking this current
limitation into account, so that I can comment on them.
