Package: linux-perf-4.17
Version: 4.17.14-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
fairly frequently, after recording perf data with
perf record -F99 --call-graph dwarf [...]
when I then immediately do
perf report
I get an error message saying
failed to process sample
0x44098e [0x8]: failed to process type: 68
making the recorded data unusable (at least so far I found no way to use it).
All I can do is record again, maybe with lower frequency, and hope that this
time the problematic event does not happen...
I have rebooted the machine since the last kernel upgrade, so the perf tool and
the running kernel should match exactly.
Kind regards,
Ralf

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
