Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] perf thread-stack: Fix thread stack return from
kernel for kernel-only case

Trying with you above instructions I hit some snags, 'perf-with-kcore'
expects the first arg to be the directory where it'll find the perf.data
file, etc, right? I.e. to work I had to do:
[root@...co tmp]# rm -rf bep
[root@...co tmp]# rm -rf example.db
[root@...co tmp]# perf-with-kcore record bep -e intel_pt//k -- ls
Recording
Using /root/bin/perf
perf version 5.2.rc4.gd1d5628fa057
/root/bin/perf record -o bep/perf.data -e intel_pt//k -- ls
<SNIP>
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.123 MB bep/perf.data ]
Copying kcore
Done
[root@...co tmp]# perf-with-kcore script bep --itrace=bep -s ~acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py example.db branches calls
Using /root/bin/perf
perf version 5.2.rc4.gd1d5628fa057
/root/bin/perf script -i bep/perf.data --kallsyms=bep/kcore_dir/kallsyms --itrace=bep -s /home/acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py example.db branches calls

I.e. add 'bep' after 'script' and before '--itrace-bep'.
I'm fixing this up in the comment, please check.
With that in place I can reproduce your results below.
Thanks,
