scripts/stall-analyser: improve error messages on invalid input
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
and make sure to exit with failure status

Currently the program hits an internal error on
invalid input like: `Reactor stalled for 4 ms on shard 0.  Backtrace:`
that has no following backtrace.

Instead of emitting an obscure backtrace, like:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/bhalevy/dev/seastar/./scripts/stall-analyser.py", line 461, in <module>
    main()
  File "/home/bhalevy/dev/seastar/./scripts/stall-analyser.py", line 443, in main
    render.process_trace(trace, t)
  File "/home/bhalevy/dev/seastar/./scripts/stall-analyser.py", line 156, in process_trace
    self.add_head(t, node)
  File "/home/bhalevy/dev/seastar/./scripts/stall-analyser.py", line 175, in add_head
    self.head.link_callee(t, n)
  File "/home/bhalevy/dev/seastar/./scripts/stall-analyser.py", line 104, in link_callee
    if n.addr in self.callees:
       ^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'addr'
```

Print a formal error message that describes how valid
input should look like in 2 cases:
1. When no valid input is found
2. When a line with empty backtrace is found.
