I.e.:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf record -e cycles usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ 
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf evlist -v
  cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000,
  sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1, inherit: 1, mmap: 1,
  comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1,
  exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$

Just one event, no need for PERF_SAMPLE_ID.

But with > 1 events:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf record -e cycles,instructions usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.014 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf evlist -v
  cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000,
  sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1,
  sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
  instructions: size: 112, config: 1,
  { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000,
  sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|ID|PERIOD, read_format: ID, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, sample_id_all: 1,
  exclude_guest: 1
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$
