6.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Yang Jihong <yangjihong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6e4b398770d5023eb6383da9360a23bd537c155b ] 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.
