Something is still missing to support different sample_types for events. 
Consider the case (S/W event + tracepoint):
   perf record -e cs -c1 -e sched:sched_switch -a -- sleep 1
   perf script

This patch addresses the sample_type mismatch error message, but I get 
no event samples in the output. Besides the usual header I get:

   No trace sample to read. Did you call 'perf record -R'?

It's a 16-cpu box with 5 VMs running. I know there should be at least a 
few samples in 1 second.

Stephane: are you looking at allowing sample_types per event?

David
