simpletrace: Improve the error message if event is not declared
Today, if we use a trace-event file which does not declare an event
existing in the log file we'll get the following error:
$ scripts/simpletrace.py trace-events trace-68508
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "scripts/simpletrace.py", line 242, in <module>
run(Formatter())
File "scripts/simpletrace.py", line 217, in run
process(events, sys.argv[2], analyzer, read_header=read_header)
File "scripts/simpletrace.py", line 192, in process
for rec in read_trace_records(edict, log):
File "scripts/simpletrace.py", line 107, in read_trace_records
rec = read_record(edict, idtoname, fobj)
File "scripts/simpletrace.py", line 71, in read_record
return get_record(edict, idtoname, rechdr, fobj)
File "scripts/simpletrace.py", line 45, in get_record
event = edict[name]
KeyError: 'qemu_mutex_locked'
This patch improves this error by adding a hint instead of just that
KeyError log:
$ scripts/simpletrace.py trace-events trace-68508
'qemu_mutex_locked' event is logged but is not declared in the trace
events file, try using trace-events-all instead.
