+ Extended error information
+ --------------------------
+
+ For some error conditions encountered when invoking a hist trigger
+ command, extended error information is available via the
+ corresponding event's 'hist' file. Reading the hist file after an
+ error will display more detailed information about what went wrong,
+ if information is available. This extended error information will
+ be available until the next hist trigger command for that event.
+
+ If available for a given error condition, the extended error
+ information and usage takes the following form:
+
+ # echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
+ echo: write error: Invalid argument
+
+ # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist
+ ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz
+ Last command: xxx
+
