Arnaldo,
I modified this patch as below.

But if setting wrong config value,
existing error message is printed in perf_config().
So output can be printed as follows
1) Two error messages
# perf ftrace usleep 123456
Please select function_graph(default)or function to use tracer.
Error: wrong config key-value pair ftrace.tracer=functionds
2) Or only one error message in perf_config()
(if we don't "pr_err()" in that "return -1" branch)
# perf ftrace usleep 123456
Error: wrong config key-value pair ftrace.tracer=functionds
Which do you like better, 1) or 2) ?
Thanks,
Taeung
