So, on a recent kernel, no need to run with sudo:

[acme@zoo linux]$ perf record --switch-events -e dummy -- du > /dev/null
^[[A[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.016 MB perf.data ]
[acme@zoo linux]$ perf script --show-switch-events
              du  4026 103867.891889: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH OUT
              du  4026 103867.891980: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH IN 
              du  4026 103867.984411: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH OUT
              du  4026 103867.984424: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH IN 
[acme@zoo linux]$

[acme@zoo linux]$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SWITCH
103867891889845 0x4260 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH OUT
103867891980760 0x4278 [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_SWITCH IN
