Was auxtrace enabled in prior releases, but is not now in Yakkety? Can you post how you enable auxtrace when you compile your own kernel?

This prevents perf from using Intel Processor Trace (PT) or Branch Trace Store (BTS). Unfortunately, rather than indicating that auxtrace is missing, perf just records no samples: # grep -c intel_pt /proc/cpuinfo 8 # perf list | grep intel_pt # grep intel_pt /proc/cpuinfo # perf record -e intel_pt// -- ls ... # perf script I am able to successfully to use PT on my machine if I compile perf myself.
