Description Adam Jackson 2012-10-22 20:43:00 UTC 
'perf record' emits a perf.data such that 'perf report' throws:

0x3d1e0 [0x20]: failed to process type: 9

I'm only seeing this on ppc64 so far.
Comment 1 Adam Jackson 2012-12-13 17:59:16 UTC 
Not seeing this anymore, so, cool.
Comment 2 karlp 2012-12-21 15:38:44 UTC 
I saw this today too, on amd64.  "perf report" worked, but "perf report -s dso" failed with this error.

I suspect this is possibly from having done kernel upgrades via yum, but having not rebooted yet.  3.6.10-2.fc17 is installed, but I'm still running 3.6.9-2.fc17.x86_64

(So probably NOTABUG, but this might help anyone googling this error...)
