perf config: Validate config variable arguments before trying use them
You can show the values for several config items as below: # perf config report.queue-size call-graph.record-mode but it is necessary to more precisely check arguments, before passing them to show_spec_config(). This validation function would be also used when parsing config key-value pairs arguments in the near future. Committer notes: Testing it: $ perf config bla. The config variable does not contain a variable name: bla. $ perf config .bla The config variable does not contain a section name: .bla $ perf config bla.bla $ Signed-off-by: Taeung Song <treeze.taeung@gmail.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Nambong Ha <over3025@gmail.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Cc: Wookje Kwon <aweee0@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478241862-31230-4-git-send-email-treeze.taeung@gmail.com [ Fix some spelling errors ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
