Did you call 'perf record' without -g? The problem is that the header data is not written to the pipe, so the sample_type has not been available when perf_report__setup_sample_type is called. For pipe mode, record dumps the sample type as part of the synthesized events stream -- perf_event__synthesize_attrs(). Handle this be detecting pipe mode and not doing early sanity checks on sample_type.
