In some cases, the number of cpus (nr_cpus_online) is confused with the
maximum cpu number (nr_cpus_avail), which results in the error in the
example below:
Example on system with 8 cpus:
Before:
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
# ./perf record --kcore -e intel_pt// taskset --cpu-list 7 uname
Linux
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.147 MB perf.data ]
# ./perf script --itrace=e
Requested CPU 7 too large. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
0x25908 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68 [Invalid argument]
After:
# ./perf script --itrace=e
#
Fixes: 8c7274691f ("perf machine: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with perf_env::nr_cpus_online")
Fixes: 7df4e36a47 ("perf session: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with perf_env::nr_cpus_online")
