Kernel commit dc4e280 (ring-buffer: Redefine the unimplemented
RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP) changed the way the ring buffer timestamps work
- after that commit the previously unimplemented RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP
type causes the time delta to be used as a timestamp rather than a delta
to be added to the timestamp.
The trace-cmd code didn't get updated to handle this, so misinterprets
the event data for this case, which causes a cascade of errors,
including trace-report not being able to identify synthetic (or any
other) events generated by the histogram code (which uses TIME_STAMP
mode). For example, the following triggers along with the trace-cmd
shown cause an UNKNOWN_EVENT error and trace-cmd report crash:
# echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat pid_t pid char comm[16]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs if comm=="ping"' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(sched.sched_wakeup).trace(wakeup_latency,$wakeup_lat,next_pid,next_comm) if next_comm=="ping"' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=comm,pid,lat:wakeup_lat=lat:sort=lat' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/trigger
# trace-cmd record -e wakeup_latency -e sched_wakeup -f comm==\"ping\" ping localhost -c 5

After this patch we get the correct interpretation and the events are
shown properly:
