Ian,

thanks very much for looking into this.
I have tested your patch on several configurations and to be perfect, please
change this line:
# git diff
diff --git a/tools/perf/tests/shell/record.sh b/tools/perf/tests/shell/record.sh
index efc0cb07a929..9cb8494f314d 100755
--- a/tools/perf/tests/shell/record.sh
+++ b/tools/perf/tests/shell/record.sh
@@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ trap trap_cleanup exit term int

test_per_thread() {
echo "Basic --per-thread mode test"
- if ! perf stat -e instructions:u --quiet true
+ if ! perf record -e instructions:u --quiet true 2> /dev/null
then
echo "Per-thread record [Skipped instructions:u not supported]"
if [ $err -ne 1 ]
#
This runs fine, just use record instead of stat, you use perf record later
on anyway.

With this change you have my
