blktrace bno_plot.py: output comprehensive message when gnuplot not found
Currently, bno_plot.py uses os.execvp which does not show enough information when executed command is not found. For example, when gnuplot is not found bno_plot.py shows the following messages: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/bno_plot.py", line 123, in <module> os.execvp(cmd[0], cmd) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/os.py", line 344, in execvp _execvpe(file, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/os.py", line 368, in _execvpe func(file, *argrest) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Users can't understand what happend directly from the message. Instead of os.execvp, this patch uses os.system which shows the following messages when gnuplot not found: sh: gnuplot: command not found Signed-off-by: Eiichi Tsukata <devel@etsukata.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
