Is there a better description of what "perf inject -s" does?

The man page for "perf inject" says:
--
       -s, --sched-stat
           Merge sched_stat and sched_switch for getting events
           where and how long tasks slept. sched_switch contains
           a callchain where a task slept and sched_stat contains
           a timeslice how long a task slept.
--

Is it creating a new type of event?  If so, is the new event type visible to "perf script" and "perf script -s" ?

I just see events disappearing:

It's meant to be used for off-CPU profiling and also depends on the scheduler 
stat tracepoints, see also:

https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Tutorial#Profiling_sleep_times
https://github.com/milianw/shell-helpers/blob/master/perf-sleep-record

I concur that the documentation should be expanded. The situation you show 
below shows an issue with `perf inject`: It currently takes the cost of the 
`sched_stat` tracepoint and sets it as the period of the `sched_switch` 
tracepoint. That makes it impossible to trace multiple stats in one go. 
Instead, one would need to take the switch out event's callgraph and set it on 
the `sched_stat` tracepoints, which would fix this situation.

Hope that helps
