Ian Rogers 05efa0ab01 perf evsel: Improve the evsel__open_strerror() for EBUSY 
The existing EBUSY strerror message is:

  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 16 (Device or resource busy) for event (intel_bts//).
  "dmesg | grep -i perf" may provide additional information.

The dmesg won't be useful. What is more useful is knowing what
processes are potentially using the PMU, which some procfs scanning can
reveal. When parallel testing tests/shell/stat_all_pmu.sh this yields:

  Testing intel_bts//
  Error:
  The PMU intel_bts counters are busy and in use by another process.
  Possible processes:
  2585882 perf list
  2585902 perf list -j -o /tmp/__perf_test.list_output.json.KF9MY
  2585904 perf list
  2585911 perf record -e task-clock --filter period > 1 -o /dev/null --quiet true

  2589148 /tmp/perf/perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -e cpu-clock -m 1 sleep 10
  2589379 perf --buildid-dir /tmp/perf.debug.Umx record --buildid-all -o /tmp/perf.data.YBm /tmp/perf.ex.MD5.ZQW
  2589568 perf record -o /tmp/__perf_test.program.mtcZH/perf.data --branch-filter any,save_type,u -- perf test -w brstack
  2589649 perf record --per-thread -o /tmp/__perf_test.perf.data.5d3dc perf test -w thloop
  2589898 perf record -o /tmp/perf-test-script.BX2b27Dcnj/pp-perf.data --sample-cpu uname

Which gets a little closer to finding the issue.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
