The reason was, libunwind was not compiled in. We can use 'perf -vv' to check the compiled libraries but it would be valuable to report a warning to user directly (especially valuable for a perf newbie). The warning is: Warning: Please install libunwind development packages during the perf build. Both TUI and stdio are supported.
