for some reason, this structure gets compiled as 36 bytes in some files
(the ones that alloacte it) but 40 bytes in others (the ones that use it).
The cause is an off_t type that gets a different size in different
compilation units for some yet-to-be-explained reason.

But the effect is disasterous; the size/offset members of the struct
are at different offsets, and result in mostly complete garbage.
The parser in perf is so robust that this all gets hidden, and after
skipping an certain amount of samples, it recovers.... so this bug
is not normally noticed.

.... except when you want every sample to be exact.

Fix this by just using an explicitly sized type.

Create a structured file format that includes the full
perf_counter_attr and all its relevant counter IDs so that
the reporting program has full information.
