Subject: [PATCH 08/15] perf stat: Document --detailed option
Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 16:44:44 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457379891-28516-9-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457379891-28516-1-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org>
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
I'm surprised this remained undocumented since at least 2011. And it is
actually a very useful switch, as Steve and I came to realize recently.
Add the text from
2cba3ffb9a9d ("perf stat: Add -d -d and -d -d -d options to show more CPU events")
which added the incrementing aspect to -d.
