Exactly !!

I think I'll settle with perf record for now. Still, unlike trace
event, sample count is not meaningful for PMU event. Output of "perf
script" does not include period value. One line of code will do the
work.

lude 17342 750118.202915: raw 0x3c: 86754      ffffffff8115f6b9
__mem_cgroup_commit_char
lude 17342 750118.203025: raw 0x3c: 1027634   ffffffff811344b9
__mem_cgroup_commit_char

86754, 1027634 is the period value. But I'm not sure which is the PMU
value, is it just period value, or period x sample after. If so, what
is the sample after value?

thank you,
