I verified this patch and I can confirm the physical address can be
dumped successfully.

I have a more general question, seems to me, we need to change the
macro PERF_SAMPLE_MASK in the file util/event.h as below, so
here doesn't need to 'or' the flag PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR anymore.

@Arnaldo, @Jiri, could you confirm if this is the right way to move
forward?  I am not sure why PERF_SAMPLE_MASK doesn't contain the bit
PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR in current code.

I think there is a reason that PERF_SAMPLE_MASK is a subset of all the
bits. This comment below suggests it. Is it so the mask only includes fields
that are 64bits? That makes the __evsel__sample_size() function a simple
multiplication of a count of all the fields that are 64bits.

  static int
  perf_event__check_size(union perf_event *event, unsigned int sample_size)
  {
	/*
	 * The evsel's sample_size is based on PERF_SAMPLE_MASK which includes
	 * up to PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD.  After that overflow() must be used to
	 * check the format does not go past the end of the event.
	 */
	if (sample_size + sizeof(event->header) > event->header.size)
		return -EFAULT;

	return 0;
  }

Having said that, the mask was updated once to add PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to
it, so that comment is slightly out of date now.

Having said that, the mask was updated once to add PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to
it, so that comment is slightly out of date now.

After reading code, seems the conclusion "a count of all the fields
that are 64bits" is not valid.  PERF_SAMPLE_MASK contains bits
PERF_SAMPLE_IP and PERF_SAMPLE_TID, the corresponding fields 'pid'
and 'tid' in the structure perf_sample are u32 type.

Okay, thanks for sharing the info, it does show that it's deliberately to
not contain all fields in PERF_SAMPLE_MASK.  If so, this patch is fine
for me:
