Not working:
root@number:~# perf reccord
Failed to run command 'reccord': No such file or directory

a65ef8052854ba75 (HEAD) perf: Suggest inbuilt commands for unknown command
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$
I use O= with install-bin, trying:
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ make -C tools/perf install-bin
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ perf raccord
Failed to run command 'raccord': No such file or directory
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$
Also didn't work
Trying to figure this out...
