Hmm.... my mileage varies using latest kernel
(446cc6345d3de6571bdd0840f48aca441488a28d)

$ /tmp/build-perf/perf record --stat -fo /tmp/perf.data -p $(pidof rsyslogd)
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.007 MB /tmp/perf.data (~308 samples) ]

$ /tmp/build-perf/perf report -T -i /tmp/perf.data
# Events: 6  cycles
#
# Overhead   Command      Shared Object                      Symbol
# ........  ........  .................  ..........................
#
    97.61%  rsyslogd  libc-2.13.so       [.] __libc_disable_asynccancel
     2.39%  rsyslogd  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] native_write_msr_safe


#
# (For a higher level overview, try: perf report --sort comm,dso)
#
# PID  TID


ie., I do not get the counter values. Specifying the counter with -e
(e.g., -e branch-misses) does not help -- still no counter output.
