Subject: LBR unwinding for user defined dynamic trace point

Hey all,
I just tried to use LBR with a user defined dynamic trace point and get a
strange error message:
$ sudo perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc
$ sudo perf record -e probe_libc:malloc --call-graph lbr -F 1000 ./foo
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 95 (Operation not supported)
for event (probe_libc:malloc).
/bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
When I do the same with the Dwarf unwinder, it works just fine. Using the LBR
unwinder with a performance counter like instructions also works fine. Does
anyone know what the issue is here?
