commit 6e4b398770d5023eb6383da9360a23bd537c155b upstream.
When 'perf sched' enables the call-graph recording, sample_type of dummy
event does not have PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, timehist_check_attr() checks
that the evsel does not have a callchain, and set show_callchain to 0.
Currently 'perf sched timehist' only saves callchain when processing the
'sched:sched_switch event', timehist_check_attr() only needs to determine
whether the event has PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN.
Before:
# perf sched record -g true
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 4.153 MB perf.data (7536 samples) ]
# perf sched timehist
Samples do not have callchains.
