I had done the following steps.
1) Ran 'perf sched record stress-ng --cpu 32 -l 50 --timeout 40s'
2) Changed the nice value of stress-ng while the record was going on.
ps -C stress-ng -o pid=
64195

renice -n 10 -p 64195

3) Then ran 'perf sched timehist --show-prio'

343918.720052 [0015] stress-ng[64195] 120 0.013 0.013 21.719
.
.
343958.797257 [0009] stress-ng[64195] 130 40076.812 0.007 0.393

The output shows the final priority change of stress-ng from 120 to 130,
but the transition format xxx->yyy is not displayed.

Am I missing something?

Thanks and Regards
