[PATCH 09/11] perf stat: Correct --no-aggr description

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Mar 20 2017 - 21:20:28 EST


From: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Description of --no-aggr in perf-stat man page is outdated. --no-aggr
can also be used while profiling specific set of cpus. For ex,

$ perf stat -e cycles,instructions -C 1-2 --no-aggr -- sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 1-2':

CPU1 5,94,92,795 cycles
CPU2 2,69,72,403 cycles
CPU1 2,02,08,327 instructions # 0.34 insn per cycle
CPU2 73,17,123 instructions # 0.12 insn per cycle

1.000989132 seconds time elapsed
