When one uses -p $not_existing_pid, the output of --help is printed:
$ perf record -p 123456789 2>&1 | head -n3
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
Let's change it something similar what perf top -p $not_existing_pid
prints:
$ ./perf top -p 123456789 --stdio
Error:
Couldn't create thread/CPU maps: No such process
Newly suggested error message:
$ ./perf record -p 123456789
Couldn't create thread/CPU maps: No such process

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 Restructured Text 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.
