I tried perf report but it gave that output :


hwpplayer1 at hwpplayer1-Aspire-V3-772G:~$ perf report

  You may need to install the following packages for this specific kernel:

Subject: [PATCH 07/16] perf auxtrace: For reporting purposes, un-group
AUX area event
An AUX area event must be the group leader when recording traces in
sample mode, but that does not produce the expected results from
'perf report' because it expects the leader to provide samples. Rather
than teach 'perf report' about AUX area sampling, un-group the AUX
area event during processing, making the 2nd event the leader.

Example:

$ perf record -e '{intel_pt//u,branch-misses:u}' -c 1 uname
Linux
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.080 MB perf.data ]

Before:

$ perf report

Samples: 800 of events 'anon group { intel_pt//u, branch-misses:u }',
Event count (approx.): 800
