[PATCH] perf: Fix missing raw data on tracepoint events

[PATCH] perf: Fix missing raw data on tracepoint events

[James Clark]

Since commit 838d9bb62d13 ("perf: Use sample_flags for raw_data")
raw data is not being output on tracepoints due to the PERF_SAMPLE_RAW
field not being set. Fix this by setting it for tracepoint events.

This fixes the following test failure:

  perf test "sched_switch" -vvv

   35: Track with sched_switch
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 1828
  ...
  Using CPUID 0x00000000410fd400
  sched_switch: cpu: 2 prev_tid -14687 next_tid 0
  sched_switch: cpu: 2 prev_tid -14687 next_tid 0
  Missing sched_switch events
  4613 events recorded
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  Track with sched_switch: FAILED!

I was also getting similar issue[1], and confirmed that this fixes it.  Thank

Hi James, 

Thanks for the fix. I was getting similar issue with “perf trace” and it works with this fix.
