Hi,

Can you provide a perf command line for both the record and decode
phases that demonstrates the problem you are having?

Also note the cpu / trace protocol types

This is inherently incorrect - you are assuming that all trace devices
on a given system are the same and have the same parameters. This does
not have to be the case.

as above for ETE & ETMv4

Unformatted ETE data should not only have a single decoder - there
must be a decoder per CPU - as per all trace decode flows. The key
difference with ETE is that it usually has its own trace sink (TRBE),
so no formatting is needed, but per cpu decoder is still required.
