[PATCH 05/10] perf report: Show error message when processing sample fails

Show all headers | View raw

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

Currently when perf fails to process samples for some reason, it doesn't
show any message about the failure.  This is very inconvenient for users
especially on TUI as screen is reset after the failure.
